The European School of Coloproctology (ESC) of ESCP continues to offer a year-round platform for educational opportunities and is increasing its activities.

The ESC offers education in coloproctology for surgeons at different stages of their professional careers and aims to promote current knowledge and evidence-based practice. There is an emphasis on improving surgeons’ skills to optimize patient outcomes. Different formats of training activities are being used. The activities are supported by educational grants from our industry partners and other training organisations. ESC/ESCP is responsible for designing the objectives and educational contents of these events.
