If you have a project or educational activity aimed at early career Consultants and / or Senior Trainees, and would like to partner with the ASGBI, contact us.

The ASGBI is committed to providing excellence in their services, and the ECCN Mentorship Programme is no exception. 

It is well documented that Mentoring can have a positive impact on individual surgeon’s career progression and overall mental wellbeing. A positive workforce can lead to better team dynamics and ultimately better patient care. The wider implications of improved career and management decisions can impact patient morbidity and mortality.
