Training & Education

Training and Education

ERN eUROGEN provides training and education for the next generation of urologists and surgeons, increasing skill levels, offering highly specialised surgical training, and improving patient outcomes.

We do this through our webinar programme, books and courses. Our virtual case discussions offer a further way to train experts, and outputs from our scientific publications, patient registry, guidelines, and research are also used for training and education.

Each of our Workstreams has a dedicated Educational Lead who develops the training and education programme annually, with input from our European Patient Advocacy Group (ePAG).

Our aims are to:

  • facilitate mobility of expertise, virtually or physically
  • develop, share, and spread information, knowledge, and best practice
  • foster developments that improve care within and outside the network

A priority is transferring knowledge and training to Member States with less expertise, increasing the quality of outcomes across the EU/EEA, and sharing this knowledge globally. We do this by pooling and disseminating highly specialised knowledge.
