Introducing a new initiative from the Surgical Skills Project, designed to support practical surgical learning across O&G
Overview
The final phase of the O&G Surgical Skills Project focuses on the implementation of the findings and recommendations from Phases 1 and 2.
To embed the outcomes of Phase 2 into practical, implementable structures and increase access to high-quality surgical training resources, we are launching a new webinar series that will cover key procedures on the core curriculum. These sessions are designed to support trainees across all stages to expand their knowledge and develop skills that are fundamental to O&G training.
Each webinar will cover the steps of an operation, pre-operative preparation, post-operative care and common challenges that can arise in practice. Experts from across the specialty will be on hand to answer questions during live Q&A sessions, sharing practical tips and valuable insight from their own experience.
