With training advisors on hand, as well as workbooks to use as reference this is a great way to get under the skin of a quite complicated industry.

This course enables you to take things at your own pace, as we get to grips with medical jargon, terminology and documents. Working

at any interview and you’ve got a great grounding for your first job in this field.
