No study to date has evaluated the sleep medicine curriculum from the perspective of the Australian ENT surgical trainee, or addressed potential strategies for improving levels of surgical skill and knowledge in this field.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0022215114002801_sec2\"><jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title><jats:p>A cross-sectional survey was used to assess knowledge of sleep surgery in trainees enlisted with the Australian Society of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery. After a cadaver dissection workshop on the latest reconstructive surgical techniques in adult OSA, a second survey was used to assess changes in the likelihood of applying techniques.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0022215114002801_sec3\"><jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Overall, trainee confidence, knowledge and exposure to sleep-disordered breathing cases averaged below 50 per cent.
