The ACS, through its Accredited Education Institutes (AEIs), provides regional hands-on surgical skills courses that offer attendees practical training and experience in various surgical techniques and procedures. The courses, which include a recorded didactic lecture portion 2 weeks before the in-person surgical skills labs, are designed for practicing surgeons, fellows, and residents who wish to enhance their surgical skills and proficiency.
