Anaesthetists as Educators: An Introduction is organized by The Royal College of Anaesthetists (RCoA) and will be held on Jun 05, 2018 at The Royal College of Anaesthetists, London, England, United Kingdom. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 5 CPD Credits.

Conference Description :
Anaesthetists as Educators: an Introduction provides an introduction to post graduate medical education in anaesthesia. The course replaces an "Introduction to Teaching" and is suitable for trainees, SAS doctors and consultants who have had no previous training in teaching or medical education. This course provides the ground work for the "Anaesthetists as Educators: Teaching and Training in the Workplace" course, which is a natural follow on. This highly interactive workshop relies on you bringing your real-life experiences of teaching in the workplace in order to gain the most benefit.

Conference Objectives are :
• An overview of the educational landscape as it is today: regulatory bodies and the relationship between them, governance of medical education, where anaesthetists delivering training fit in.
• An introduction to how adults learn.
• How to teach: in theatre and giving lectures.
