Surgical Training
Our hands-on surgical training courses are designed to prepare medical students for real-world surgical experiences. The Basiskurs focuses on essential suturing techniques, from surgical hand knots to advanced suturing methods, ensuring students are fully equipped for their surgical rotations. Additionally, our Emergency Course teaches skills in wound treatment and emergency procedures, such as local anesthesia administration, helping students confidently handle urgent situations.
Led by experienced tutors, the Basiskurs is certified by the Swiss College of Surgeons (SCS), and participants receive an official SCS-endorsed certificate upon completion.
