Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD): Six-month training curriculum

The need for a well-organised and structured training in ESD across Europe has been clearly highlighted by the European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE).

Inspired by the ESGE curriculum for endoscopic submucosal dissection training, we created our Forward Program, a comprehensive six-month training program. Here, experts in ESD act as mentors, guiding participants and comprehensively teaching the necessary skills.

Our Forward Program aims to target high-potential, skilled physicians who would like to be the future experts in performing ESD. It entails several steps to guarantee the development of the trainee’s skills, including comprehensive one-on-one mentoring, ex-vivo and in-vivo hands-on training as well as case observation.
