This is an intensive, interactive exam preparation course for advanced trainees in anaesthesia about to sit the ANZCA Final Exam viva.

Essentially my aim is to teach all the techniques, structures and verbal skills that were crucial to my success in this exam.

Check out the sample videos on YouTube

These online sessions on zoom are incredibly interactive to enhance your learning. We will run through many many cases using specific techniques to give you a good understanding of how to use them.

The Basics Session will address

How to effectively summarise difficult situations
How to speak eloquently when faced with the most challenging cases, with no clear best practice answer
How to address multiple priorities in a case
Difficult Decisions
Professional documents and ANZCA standards

The Advanced session will cover

How to approach viva stems
A framework for challenging inductions
Perioperative problem solving and patient deterioration
Immersive Scenarios
Integrating Crisis management with a structured system

I believe all these concepts are reasonably straightforward. So with a bit of guidance, practice and minimal extra knowledge I want you to be able tackle this exam with more confidence and articulate the knowledge you already have with precision.
