Education

Welcome to the CARE Training and Education. The Centre for Advanced Reproductive Endosurgery (CARE), in association with the Sydney Clinical Skills & Simulation Centre (SCSSC), North Shore Private and Northern Beaches Hospitals – affiliated teaching units of the University of Sydney – warmly invites you to participate in our highly acclaimed courses in Minimal Access Pelvic Surgery.

The ultimate goal of our courses is to help you gain the skills, knowledge and confidence to:

  • Provide patients with safe, efficient and effective minimal access pelvic surgery
  • Avoid and manage complications in gynaecological surgery

Based on the tremendous positive feedback from hundreds of participants who have attended the program over the last 25 years, we are pleased to continue offering 3 distinct Master Classes each year.

Due to the tremendous interest in the courses and limited spaces, we recommend that any surgeon who wishes to register for 2025 courses to do so AS SOON AS POSSIBLE to avoid the risk and disappointment of missing out.

For 2025 Master Classes, please check the appropriate course dates and send enquiries by email.
