BOTA are pleased to offer our pre-congress 'Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Training' course, delivered in collaboration with ASiT.
DEI is an important issue that involves everyone in healthcare, regardless of your background and protected characteristics. Improvement in DEI leads to improved well-being and performance for healthcare professionals and outcomes for patients.
Following the publication of the Royal College of Surgeons England Kennedy Report and in conjunction with BOA's Diversity & Inclusion strategy, an understanding of DEI in the workplace is vital. This course aims to introduce key concepts of DEI in surgery and Orthopaedics.
This course will be delivered through a mixture of in person training, videos and small group case study examples.
This will be a virtual course, delivered via MedAll.
