Medical Education

Objective

The Medical Education SIG was formed in 1999 by ANZCA fellows who wanted to further the interest of many of our fellows in medical education.  In 2011 the special interest group has 700 members across the ANZCA region.  The main activities of the special interest group include participation in the Combined Special Interest group meeting each year, and also providing interesting speakers and content for a session at the ANZCA ASM and ASA NSC each year.

 

Activities

The Medical Education SIG contributed a session to the 2011 CSM in Hong Kong. This session was titled "Trainees in difficulty- getting them back on track". For further details on this session please visit the CSM website.
