- Abstract
Objectives: To get an overview of the education offer for obstetrics trainees in France and to assess their satisfaction and requests regarding these classes and their access., Material and Methods: Two questionnaires were sent over the country between September 2013 and July 2014. The first one was intended to the person in charge of teaching in each university hospital. We asked about the organization of teaching classes and access to simulation workshops. The second one was intended to the local representative of interns of the French association of gynaecology and obstetrics trainees (AGOF). We searched for overall satisfaction and requests concerning these learning classes., Results: Over 28 university hospitals, 19 teachers (67.9 %) and 25 students (89.3 %) responded. Various ways and means of teaching are used throughout the country. Use of simulation workshop has spread in many university hospitals but their types and numbers are still very different among the organizations. Students are globally satisfied by the type, volume and content of their teaching classes. Simulation workshops are really appreciated by trainees and they wish more of them were organized., Conclusion: There is a great disparity in the ways of teaching in France. Gathering resources between the different centres may allow trainees to access to the same theoretical education and simulation workshops all over the country., (Copyright © 2015 Elsevier Masson SAS.
