SERGS Level 1 Training course on simulators
SERGS level 1 is aimed to surgeons (trainees to established surgeons) planning to embark in robotic surgery in the future (this future could be around the corner)
Level 1 is a simulation-based training of basic robotic skills and knowledge of general robotic surgery consideration.
Date: Tuesday, 26 May
Target Group: Surgeons at the very beginning of their robotic career with little or no previous robotic experience
Course Fee: 600 EUR
Tuesday, May 26
Myomectomy, Hysterectomy and Endometriosis with live surgery
This exclusive pre-congress course offers a comprehensive, full-day programme that combines live robotic surgery with focused lectures on advanced gynaecological surgery.
Participants will attend the robotic theatres to observe multiple live procedures in depth, including advanced myomectomy, hysterectomy, and complex endometriosis surgery with multidisciplinary involvement. The course is complemented by structured lectures on anatomy, imaging, fertility considerations, and surgical decision-making.
Interactive discussions and Q&A sessions with the operating surgeons are integrated throughout the day.
Date: Tuesday, 26 May, Södersjukhuset Hospital, Sjukhusbacken 10, 118 83 Stockholm, Sweden
Target Group: Surgeons interested in advanced endometriosis management (maximum 15 participants)
Course Fee: 300 EUR
Wednesday, May 27
Workshop: Robotic-assisted surgery in endometrial, vulvar and cervical cancer
In this exclusive precongress workshop, all participants will be given the opportunity to attend our robotic theatres for in-depth observation of multiple surgeries for endometrial and cervical cancer. In addition, leading international robotic surgeons will present overviews of robotic-assisted surgery and step-by-step lectures on various procedures in gynecological oncology.
With a maximum of 10 participants, this course provides a personal and accessible learning environment.
Course fee: 300 EUR.

SERGS Level 1 - Assesment of basic skills
Fee: 250 Euro
SERGS Level 1 Assesment of basic skills
SERGS level 1 is aimed to surgeons (trainees to established surgeons) planning to embark in robotic surgery in the future (this future could be around the corner)
Level 1 is a simulation-based assessment of basic robotic skills and knowledge of general robotic surgery consideration.
Theoretical content:
You should watch 3 lectures on SERGS Video portal. The lectures are available to all SERGS members:
- General consideration on robotic surgery
- Emergency procedures in robotic surgery
- Robotic assisted hysterectomy

GESEA Robotic Exam
Fee: 500 Euro
The Gynaecological Endoscopic Surgical Education and Assessment (GESEA) programme:
- is a structured educational programme for Gynaecological (MIGS) and reproductive (ECRES) Endoscopy
- trains and certifies knowledge andpractical skills prior to surgical competence
- follows the European–American Joint Recommendation stating that each hospital teaching endoscopic surgery should make available an endoscopic dry lab for training and improving the proficiency of the endoscopic surgery skills of the physician.
- spans over three distinct levels offering learning modules for all levels of proficiency
Through its 2 main pathways in level 2, it teaches and assesses the knowledge, skills and surgical skills needed for minimal invasive gynaecological surgeon (MIGS), reproductive endoscopic surgeons (ECRES) and for both pathways a Robotics dimension in psychomotor skills is provided (Robotics).
