Advanced Coloproctology Course (ACPGBI Course)

Please note that this course is not organised by St Mark’s Academic Institute. However, you will see some of our St Mark’s team speaking at this course and we do support the Advanced Coloproctology Course run by ACPGBI.

For over three decades, the Advanced Coloproctology Course (ACC) has been a cornerstone of professional development for consultants, trainees, and allied healthcare professionals worldwide.

As we approach our 5th year as a virtual event, we are excited to unite the global coloproctology community for an unparalleled learning experience in March 2025.

This year’s course is particularly special, coinciding with the Paris Tripartite meeting, and featuring an exceptional panel of Presidents from leading international societies:

The American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons

The Colorectal Surgical Society of Australia and New Zealand

The European Society of Coloproctology

The Royal Society of Medicine Coloproctology Section

ACPGBI

 Why Attend?

• World-Class Faculty: Learn from international leaders in colorectal surgery and healthcare.
• Engaging Discussions: Participate live in interactive Q&A sessions after each talk to share insights and deepen understanding.
• Global Access: Join from anywhere, eliminating the need for travel, and connect with peers and experts worldwide.
• Interactive and On Demand

Virtual functionality provides all members of the audience the opportunity to take part in polls and ask questions of the panel via our chairs. Our experienced team of moderators review audience questions in real time and add website links and research evidence to the online platform to support further reading. The virtual format also allows us to deliver the content “on-demand” for several months after the course for those wishing to watch it at their convenience. All attendees also receive access to the virtual abstract book, with abstracts of each talk provided by all our speakers.

Accessibility and Registration

Our aim has always been to keep registration costs as low as possible to make this event accessible to all. For 2025:

• Registration fees have been frozen, with reduced fees for ACPGBI and Dukes’ Club members as a membership benefit.
• No course registration fees will be charged for participants from low-income and middle-income countries.
• This has been made possible thanks to the generous support from our industry sponsors and the commitment of the ACPGBI Executive and Trustees.

Outstanding Feedback

Since transitioning to a virtual format, the course has consistently received outstanding feedback from attendees. Each year, we evolve and refine the experience, and we are confident that ACC 2025 will be our best yet.
