Personalized learning focused on proficiency

The Symgery™ Learning Experience Design team dedicate their time to creating meaningful experience using emerging technologies that enhance learning. Our teams work hand in hand with leading surgeons to design opportunities to bridge learning gaps by focusing on the competencies required to gain proficiency at each critical step of a procedure.

Efficient and effective learning

Learning activities are specially designed for each individual learner so time spent on any simulator actively helps them to achieve their personalized goals.

A connected learning portfolio

Through our user-centric cloud system, user data is collected so both the learner and their mentor can track their progression.

The benefits of deliberate practice

Our haptic and non-haptic simulators allow learners to practice OR skills as many times as they want provide greater confidence and competence for practice in the OR.

Deliberate practice on key competencies

All users will benefit from

A customized learning pathway with content curated for your specific needs and objectives.

A variety of learning opportunities through the most up-to-date haptic, VR, and online learning tools.

Regular assessment and feedback to help reinforce positive behaviors and turn mistakes into learning experiences.

Residents, Fellows and Practicing Surgeons

We are creating an integrated system using different domains to deliver a complete learner experience.

Residents, Fellows and Practicing Surgeons

Proficiency & problem based learning

Designing training around practicing to overcome problems is the fastest way to achieve competency and then proficiency.

Residents, Fellows and Practicing Surgeons

Interactive, engaging & challenging content

We have developed each procedure to engage and challenge the learners' cognitive and psychomotor skills.

Residents, Fellows and Practicing Surgeons

Standardized or customized procedures

Access to and continual practice on a range of specifically designed procedures will shorten the time to reach mastery in surgery.

Residents, Fellows and Practicing Surgeons

Self-directed and guided learning

Enabling and encouraging the learner to take ownership to design their learning pathway around their own needs and time constraints.

Realtime assessment & feedback performance metrics & benchmarks

Tracking benchmarking and giving real-time feedback on performance is the way to drive improvement.

Residents, Fellows and Practicing Surgeons

Deliberate practice

Deliberate practice refers to a special type of practice that is purposeful and systematic. While regular practice might include mindless repetitions, deliberate practice requires focused attention and is conducted with the specific goal of improving performance.

Accreditation

Our learning modules are built using modern educational practices and based on board standards to ensure we can work towards accreditation.

Residency Directors

Changes the role of faculty, instead of being trainers, they become "facilitators of the learning process" and coaches, a far more gratifying and value-generating position!

Residency Directors

Proficiency & problem based learning

Use problem-based learning to identify and reduce competency gaps to empower learners to achieve proficiency!

Residency Directors

Interactive, engaging & challenging content

“Designing the learning experience around a competency and problem-based approach will help surgeons to build their competencies and confidence to perform more reliable and safer surgery sooner!”

Ivan Cheng MD

Prof. Orthopedic Surgery

Stanford University Medical Center

“At Texas Back Institute, surgeons and fellows can now train and perfect their skills for spine surgery through Symgery’s TSYM high fidelity haptic simulator. This provides real-time feedback and detailed surgical training steps for many of the common spine surgeries. This simulator has an ultra-precise virtual anatomy and fluoroscopy images with more than 25 surgical instruments for the surgeon to use. Much like the training of pilots on simulators, we are moving towards the use of simulators in spine surgery training.”
