FORTE, as the European Federation of Orthopaedic Trainees, represents the interests of European Orthopaedic Residents & Young Orthopaedic Surgeons, organizes scientific events and gives fellowship opportunities to its members. The last years, a European Orthopaedic Summer School specially designed for orthopaedic trainees with high motivation to improve their knowledge has been established by FORTE.

The Summer School aims to serve the needs of orthopaedic trainees of any stage; either as an annual update or as a preparation tool for National/European orthopaedic board exams. Exchange of ideas and comprehension of diversities between the different countries will be also encouraged, not only during the scientific sessions but also the social events.  

The previous edition of Summer School in Athens in July 2022 demonstrated a remarkable success due to the gathering of 50 renowned experts and more than 130 trainees from 20 different European Countries, in a highly scientific and friendly environment.

This unique scientific event could not be possible without the support of EFORT, of all major European Orthopaedic Subspecialty Societies (EORS, Eurospine, SECEC, FESSH, EHS, ESSKA, EFAS, EMSOS, EPOS) and most importantly the support of National Orthopaedic Societies.

We are proud to announce you the sixth edition of FORTE Summer School that is going to be held again in Athens, Greece, from July 24 - 28, 2023. As in the previous years, three levels of sponsorship are available:

- 1100€ - one registration with all-inclusive accommodation and meals

- 4000€ - four registrations with all-inclusive accommodation and meals

- 6700€ - seven registrations with all-inclusive accommodation and meals

*Larger group registrations (more than 7 participants): 950 € / participant

We kindly invite your National Society to participate in the sixth edition of FORTE Summer School. We welcome you to support your Orthopaedic Residents, as well as the international scientific cooperation, through this high-level educational project.
