Join us in London for our one-day course on Advanced Educational Supervision, run in conjunction with SEAUK. The talks will cover the governance of education and revalidation of trainees alongside PTSD and return to training. If Government guidelines change, we will hold this course online on the same day. 

The workshops will give participants time to discuss the problems and challenges of educational supervision in anaesthesia in the context of the current climate and help them increase the effectiveness of the educational supervision they provide.  

This event is suitable for experienced Educational Supervisors, who have completed their initial training and have gained a few years’ experience (at least 2 years). It is especially suitable for those who would like an update for revalidation or who are looking to take a formal educational role within their organisations. Please note: This course is aimed at Educational Supervisors with at least 2 years experience as an ES. If you book but do not have the required experience your place may be cancelled and your fee refunded. If you are unsure please contact the events team on events@rcoa.ac.uk

The course content is mapped to the GMC’s seven domains and participation in this course will provide supporting evidence towards the GMC approval process for named educational supervisors and named clinical supervisors.
