Introduction Endoscopy is a core component of gastroenterology training[1],yet there are no guidelines on how endoscopists should teach the procedure[2].Across most programs in the USA,endoscopy training follows an apprenticeship model,in which trainees develop skills through supervised,hands-on practice[3].Although some programs use assessment tools to determine proficiency in performing endoscopy procedures,most rely principally on procedural volume and subjective evaluations.As a result,endoscopic training is variable across and within institutions.
