The traditional and internationally well-known GBR Master Course has been offered by my team at the University of Bern since 2001. Due to the pandemic and due to my move to a private clinic in early 2021, the GBR Master Course has gotten a complete face-lift and is now offered through the Buser & Sculean Academy.
The first and most important change is the hybrid set-up allowing besides the traditional on-site participation also an online participation with a live or on-demand streaming using the latest technology. Most attractive the on-demand Streaming for 3 months. This allows a world-wide knowledge sharing to colleagues and peers, in particular for the young generation of dentists. The second change is the reputation and quality of the faculty, since I was able to invite 5 international top speakers to enrich the program with online lectures.
The faculty is absolutely world-class!
