Educational Library

To support the new Otolaryngology curriculum, ENT UK has decided to support the learning of our trainee members by providing them with a unique new educational resource. 

These sessions originated as part of January 2021’s Virtual BACO International, and each is mapped to a specific section of the new Otolaryngology curriculum. By hosting them online we aim to ensure access to cutting-edge content and the best and most up-to-date learning and research in ENT from the UK and across the globe – all grounded within the context of the new curriculum.
