The Royal Australasian College of Surgeons has taken the mantle of addressing workplace behaviour across Australia and New Zealand and one of the initiatives is a course offered for all surgeons and surgical registrars to improve communication. In order to offer the course more widely, more instructors are needed. Please consider your availability to do this important teaching.
Training In Professional Skills (TIPS) Overview
TIPS is:
- two days in duration
- conducted for 16 participants
- taught by a multidisciplinary faculty of eight-to-nine instructors
- highly interactive, including simulated scenarios.
Through a combination of interactive lectures, small group activities, discussions and immersive simulation scenarios, participants address issues and events that occur in the clinical and operating theatre environment that require skills in communication, teamwork, decision making, conflict resolution and leadership.
