The Academy of Endoscopy is addressing this challenge by pioneering a new era of endoscopy training. Our trainers are experts not only in endoscopy but also in the science of teaching and learning. We leverage the latest research in education and psychology to create highly effective training programs.

​

1. Empower Trainers: Our trainers have undergone rigorous training under the mentorship of renowned experts. Nobel Prize winner and Yidan Award laureate Professor Carl Wieman has guided us in applying the principles of Expert Performance to endoscopy, while Professor William McGaghie, a pioneer in Simulation-Based Mastery Learning (SBML), has shared his invaluable expertise in curriculum design and SBML implementation. Inspired by their mentorship, many of our members have pursued advanced degrees in education to further enhance their teaching capabilities.

2. Expert-Led Curriculum: Our curriculum is meticulously designed and continuously refined to ensure that trainees acquire the highest and standardized level of competence needed to excel in their field.

3. Advanced Simulation: We harness the power of simulation technology by introducing Simulation-Based Mastery Learning and incorporating Distance Simulation learning into our curriculum. This provides immersive and realistic training experiences, allowing trainees to master complex procedures in a safe and controlled environment.

4. Developing Innovative Technology: We are at the forefront of developing synthetic models and simulators specifically designed for mastering therapeutic endoscopy. These cutting-edge tools will provide trainees with unparalleled opportunities to practice and refine their skills.

5. Global Collaboration: We are building a global network of endoscopy trainers to share best practices and resources, fostering a collaborative community dedicated to improving patient outcomes.
