Optimising surgical training through COVID-19

29th June 2020

Overview

This webinar will provide an opportunity to hear how trainees and trainers should maximise training opportunities and experiences to facilitate progression in training, particularly in a period when surgical activity has been and continues to be significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

There will be a chance to learn about opportunities to enable flexibility in training and to prospectively develop a strong ePortfolio. Trainees have understandable anxieties and questions about their own professional development and future opportunities, and this will be an opportunity to hear from others and seek answers to their queries and concerns.
