The ACSnow offers the Objective Assessment of Skills in Surgery (OASIS) to identify areas of strength and areas for improvement in selected technical skills of PGY-2 surgical trainees.

ACSOASIS is a psychometrically tested formative assessment that uses simulation-based, time-limited stations with faculty assessors to measure resident performance on a series of technical tasks essential for surgical practice. ACSOASIS includes a comprehensive set of resources, including rater checklists, standardized instructional videos, objectives, and stems. Furthermore, the assessment tool offers step-by-step model-building instructions with a list of required materials.

Participating programs receive resident and program reports that will support surgical trainees, surgical educators, and program directors in tailoring learning activities to address individual and group needs in the competency-based education and training era.

Don’t miss your chance to get your trainees involved—enrollment ends June 16 for residents completing PGY-2 in June 2025. The cost is $200 per participating resident.
