The HKCA signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with The Royal College of Anaesthetists (RCoA) on 31 August, 2016 in Hong Kong. The areas of collaboration include the education, examination and train-the-trainers workshop. By collaborating with the RCoA, the HKCA intends to further develop Hong Kong’s anaesthetic workforce in its widest sense: from building the knowledge base of individual practitioners, developing standards of practice to policy developments for the ultimate benefit of patients.
