International Committee

The International Committee serves to break down the silos among the different AEIs across the globe. It also promotes the ACS-AEI vision in other countries and institutions wishing to share our common goals in surgical education and training.

Activities

The committee identifies existing barriers, inequalities, and their individual characteristics, needs, and practices. The committee promotes collaboration with other AEIs to effectively facilitate the implementation of uniform curricula, and to assess, develop, and implement multi-institutional research programs.
