Abstract Introduction Surgical training in general surgery is increasingly constrained by reduced theatre exposure, variable case mix and supervision, and limited opportunities to observe complex procedures. Virtual reality (VR) provides an immersive, standardised teaching tool that overcomes geographic and logistical barriers, while enabling repeated exposure to rare or technically demanding cases. Building on the demonstrated effectiveness of previous VRiMS training modules (n = 1500), this study will evaluate the use of synchronised VR teaching interventions focused on key areas of general surgery and immersive approaches for demonstrating a laparotomy. Methods We will conduct a prospective, multicentre feasibility study across 5 distant sites in the UK. The VRiMS WiS regional representatives in Liverpool, London, Bristol, Brighton and Buckinghamshire will attend remote, synchronised workshops consisting of a cadaveric 360° VR simulation of the procedure and a 3D anatomical exploration session. Pre- and post-session surveys will assess procedur
