INTRODUCTION TO THE SURVEY

We would like to invite you to participate in the survey: “Simulation & Training in Gynecology and Obstetrics”.

This survey is carried out by EBCOG (European Board & College of Obstetrics and Gynaecology) and  ESGE (European Society for Gynaecological Endoscopy) The two societies are collaborating in the GESEA4EU European Project (https://gesea.eu/gesea4eu-about2/) with the aim to standardize the training programs all over Europe.

The aim of this survey is to determine the actual situation of the teaching hospitals and institutions in terms of simulation and training tools for residents and young doctors.

This survey is motivated by the joint need of our societies to standardize the training activities all over Europe.

Your opinion will be solicited through this online questionnaire using SurveyMonkey. The questionnaire will take approximatively 10 minutes of your time to complete and confidentiality of data and compliance with GDPR will be ensured.

Thank you in advance for your participation in this survey.
