Coming 23rd July... the FTSS national conference! Held at the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, this is a great opportunity to submit a poster or abstract at a national conference (which counts towards the all important CST points!) The Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh

Surgical Courses for Core Surgical Training: 🧵   The self-assessment scoring guidance for candidates 2022 requires candidate to complete 4 surgical courses to access max points which can be expensive. I have compiled a list of accessible courses when I was searching for myself.

Also to note, societies can run surgical courses and apply for accreditation (CPD points). As part of North East FTSS, we ran a surgical skills course accredited by the RCSEd (6 CPD) points. This was kindly funded by a sponsor. Therefore free for deligates!

Had an amazing time at the 2nd The Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh annual FTSS conference. An absolutely stunning job done by this team! Watch this space 👀 FTSS UK Michael Silva
