Surgical education is an important aspect of health system development. It is a way to build surgical capacity by training surgeons to be caring ministers of the gospel as they provide excellent surgical care.

This workshop will present the importance of being a good teacher of medical students, residents, and colleagues. Presentations and small group discussion will demonstrate faculty development skills including teaching a skill, adult learning, assessment methods, giving feedback, research, professionalism and self-care.

This workshop is for all interested in improving their teaching and training the next generation of surgeons who are passionate to live out the love of Christ.

The Pan-African Academy of Christian Surgeons (PAACS) is a strategic response to the need for surgeons in Africa. PAACS trains African physicians as surgeons to care for the poor and the sick. PAACS also disciples these surgeons to share the love of Christ with their patients to bring hope to those who are suffering.
