COURSE DESCRIPTION
The Graduate Certificate in Surgical Education is an entry-level course for surgeons at the top of their profession who want to pass on their experience and knowledge to the next generation. Students will gain an invaluable foundation in the teaching skills essential for training future surgeons in the complex sets of skills required for safe surgical practice.
Offered through the Department of Surgery and Austin Health, in partnership with the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (RACS), this course caters to the unique challenges of clinical and surgical settings and recognises the advanced technologies that are increasingly important in surgery and surgical training.
Now predominantly online, the Graduate Certificate is designed with the flexibility to accommodate practicing surgeons as they become world-class educators.
This course is designed for fellows, trainees and non-surgeons who contribute to surgical education programs and want to become educators. This includes:
- Surgeons
- Veterinary surgeons
