The rapidly growing and innovative medical device sector is crying out for highly skilled auditors, product assessors and clinical reviewers, among other experts. It especially needs people competent to implement the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR). 

Understanding MDR with respect to the creation and assessment of the full Technical Documentation and the Clinical Evaluation Report is crucial for Medical Device manufacturers. 

These courses will support enterprises on the journey to MDR compliance. Graduating may also be the first step to a potential career as an Notified Body auditor and/or product assessor.
