ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø

Education is one of the most vital areas in which the ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø is involved – from the annual conference to small local meetings. It is essential that we offer access to high-quality educational tools and events to our members and also support our members to organise their own events.

The ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø Education Committee is responsible for the programme of all educational meetings of the society, including those organised by the ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø’s sections. The Committee considers all aspects of education in gastroenterology. It is responsible for considering applications for financial support in regard to attending conferences and educational training courses and it advises on nominations for such fellowships and awards. In considering the education strategy for the ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø it is important that we remain aligned with the ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø mission statement, specifically by supporting the strategic pillar of service improvement and advancing knowledge, so that the Society remains a resource of high quality information, guidance and education.

Event Endorsement by the ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø Education Committee

The Education Committee will review and endorse meetings or resources that are deemed relevant and important to members of the Society. Endorsed meetings are promoted via the ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø newsletters and dedicated emails, and across our various social channels.

Endoscopy Simulation Case Scenarios

The scenarios hosted here were developed as part of the SCALE-ENDO (Study of Communication and Adaptive Capacity using in-situ Learning Environments based on real-life risks in ENDOscopy) study.

Designed for multi-professional endoscopy teams including endoscopists, nurses, healthcare assistants, and administrative staff, each scenario was constructed to reflect the complexity of real-world endoscopy incidents based on a human factors analysis of endoscopy-related incidents reported to NHS England over a five-year period. Scenarios incorporate challenges to team communication, situational awareness, and adaptive decision-making under organisational pressure.
