We are proud to announce that this year we are running an online, CPD-verified teaching series! It will be focusing on introducing beginners such as DCT’s and FY2 doctors to oral and maxillofacial surgery in a practical, applicable way.

We are also aiming at launching an MRCS Part B Revision course later this year - taking a deep dive into the exam format, anatomy, and more. Keep your eyes on this space!

We are also working with the creators of the OMFS Survival Guide to bring it back, hosted on the JTG website.
