An additional benefit of focusing efforts to develop the educational skills of endoscopy instructors is that these “train the trainer” sessions serve to promote uniformity in endoscopy education [11,43]. The author's group conducted a pilot study that examined the feasibility of short “train the trainer” sessions to achieve these goals.
