Authors' objectives: The SSSP has five core aims: • to produce a report examining international laparoscopic surgical simulation training and its implications in Australia • to develop a training and assessment program suited to the Australian education and healthcare systems • to implement this curriculum • to assess this curriculum • to develop a ‘train the trainer’ program to assess the best way to teach the use of the chosen surgical simulators. This program will build on current international developments in laparoscopic surgical training to produce a new and innovative curriculum for the provision of surgical education. A pre-trial assessment of this curriculum will be performed in South Australia in late 2008, followed by the national implementation in early to mid 2009.
