The Eagle Project is the Royal College of Surgeons of England’s strategic response to fundamental changes in surgical training and practice. It will extend the frontiers of surgical knowledge through the teaching of surgical skills, the advancement and sharing of clinical and teaching knowledge and the promotion of safe surgery. This three-phased project will transform our education facilities into a national centre of excellence for surgical education, training and assessment by 2010.
As well as meeting the lifelong training needs of trainees and surgeons in all branches of surgery, the Eagle Project will establish the College as a national and international centre for training other members of the surgical team, including theatre nurses, radiologists and surgical care practitioners.
Named after the eagle, the College emblem, this project will see the development of a centre which will become the hub from which we will innovate surgical training programmes to be delivered not only at the College, but also at our 120 regional centres and other remote and international locations.
