ICOSET 2022

In 2022, the ICOSET meeting returned to the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh on 31 May – 1 June. With the theme of 'Making It Better' delegates from all over the globe came together to hear from leading voices within surgical education.

Over thirty speakers shared the stage, and six parallel sessions explored a range of topics including competency, disruption in training and differential attainment. The future of surgical training was a key focus across the conference and sessions focusing on the trainee experience, digital training, and remote learning provided valuable insight.

ICOSET 2022 was a huge success for the Faculty of Surgical Trainers, and we will continue to promote excellence in surgical training and engage our membership to get involved, helping to maintain excellent resources for trainers.
