Webinars
The Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh runs a rolling programme of webinars aimed primarily at surgical trainees. These webinars are delivered in separate series focused on the various surgical specialities. The webinars provide a useful development opportunity and could also be a helpful revision resource for those planning to sit the MRCS or any other postgraduate surgical exams.
Each webinar lasts for approximately 1 hour and includes a lecture presented by an expert in their field as well as a Q&A session where attendees have the opportunity to ask questions.
We record all of the webinars and these recordings are made available to RCSEd Fellows, Members and Affiliates in our webinar archive.
