Course Outline

​

Our philosophy is that FEES supervision should be trainee centred and trainee driven and so this course is aimed at FEES practitioners and those moving into FEES supervisory roles.

Lack of a local supervisor for the workplace-based teaching and supervision of FEES practical endoscopy and the assessor roles severely limits the progress of the trainee FEES practitioner. Often, a suitably experienced local clinician is unwilling to commit to supervision because of lack of resources or a clear road map to the acquisition of competence.

​

This session provides the skills and resources to design and deliver short, structured, supervised learning events. It provides practical resources for conducting formative and summative assessments so that the trainer can feel confident in the trainee’s skills and knowledge and therefore able to sign off their portfolio of evidence.
