Education Division

Education is the second major role for CORE. We have specific areas of knowledge and skills. We have a role and a duty in sharing those with the health professional community, with the public and the media. In doing so we should seek to add value in the areas we are best at, the areas where we can offer a unique depth of understanding.

The staff of CORE has particular strength in the area of weight loss surgery, its techniques and health benefits. In particular, we have more experience and research background on studies of the Lap-Band procedure than any other group in the world and this has been the dominant area of our teaching and training. We have conducted more basic and advanced Lap-Band training courses for surgeons and their associated health staff over the last 12 years than any other group.
