How is the course run?
We have replicated the real world handson workshop online so there are the same periods of self study, lectures, worked examples, discussions and self assessments as before. The only difference is that we rely more on you to be fully engaged.
We expect you to complete staging of all cases and assessments that we set throughout the course and to submit your answers via our voting app. By doing this Gina can understand how best to tailor her teaching to you. Although she can’t physically stand behind you, through screen sharing she can answer individual questions but in a way that benefits the group. Everyone will be given the opportunity to present case examples in real time so that Gina can pass on practical tips as to how stage in a methodical way when presenting at an MDT.
We aim for you to leave the course not with a list of correct answers to a specific set of cases, but with a set of practical tools that you can use in your MDTs and rectal cancer reporting.
