Core Tip	Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a complex procedure associated with high complication rate. In Japan, training in ESD follows the traditional mentor/apprentice approach but significant variability in training approaches exists. We review the learning curves for ESD and describe the training algorithm proposed in Japan aiming to standardize training, and its applicability in the West. We highlight the challenges for ESD dissemination in the West, describing both the consensus and the diverging opinions between Asian and Western training models. Finally, we emphasize the need for structured training system to enhance trainee experience and, most importantly, to reduce the risks of complications and inadequate treatment.
