Tele‐education assisted mentorship in surgery (TEAMS) is a novel methodology for surgical skills training with remote, hands‐on, high‐fidelity, and low‐cost simulation‐based education and one‐to‐one mentorship with longitudinal assessments. We review the background, methodology, and our experience with implementing TEAMS as an adjunct to traditional methods of surgical education and mentorship.
