Disruption in surgical training during the COVID-19 pandemic has prompted many innovative "virtual" modules to address the loss of learning exposure during these difficult times.

This idea merges the advantages of self-assessment and mentoring for the benefit of surgical trainees. Its embedded continuous close individualized mentoring can change the surgical training culture by initiating an assessment of surgical learning and skills right from the beginning of surgical training.
