In order to showcase our three core courses, we have created a set of Medicology Signature sites.
Our Signature courses are those where in effect we are the de facto benchmark for the industry, a position earned by leading that field and reinforced by the testimonials of those who have gone before.
These courses deliver exceptional benefits directly to Trusts bringing them in-house, by not only providing a course that is extremely valued by its target audience but also in the positive effects they have on those participating. What’s more, you’ll almost certainly save money too by reducing open course fees and saving on the travel.
Take a look at our Signature sites:

We are currently running a study for any and all NHS Consultants to try and determin your perceptions of staff treatment within the NHS. The reason for this? Well a recent Whitehall study showed that civil servants who felt they had been treated unfairly were 55% more likely to encounter cardiac events.
If you are a NHS Consultant, please spare 5 minutes to complete our Perceptions of Unfairness in Healthcare study. Now closed.

Management Masterclass for Consultants is a two-day course that fills the gap of in management training for NHS consultants, or junior doctors nearing completion of training. Since release in the autumn, it has catapulted to the top of the list in bookings and we are now receiving referrals resulting from people who attended the earlier dates.
This level of response probably reflects the lack of management development NHS consultants are receiving during their training and the increased requirement to engage in both business and leadership issues on reaching this level. Certainly for people wishing to increase their effectiveness through people, this is probably one of the most effective courses we run.
Interestingly, we also get the most bespoke enquiries about it too, which we are delighted about because by organising it for a specific group of people we get to tailor the programme to deal with specific issues and everyone gets the benefit at reduced cost.

Following two unrelated reports that delegates had been charged around 5% more on their AMEX statements than they believed they had paid for their Medicology course, we undertook an investigation and found some very surprising results.
There is an ongoing dispute between PayPal (an eBAY company), our payment processor, and AMEX. This means that purchasers using AMEX are routed to the US PayPal processing centre and charged in dollars, which is then converted back to pounds at a disadvantageous exchange rate, resulting in a roughly 5% additional cost of courses paid for in this manner. This is not unique to Medicology Ltd and in fact eBAY themselves have just issued a warning about it. We have absolutely no way of determining this because we are receiving the right amount of funds. That’s right, both PayPal and AMEX are receiving greater funds at the expense of the purchaser, without ever informing the retailer.

We have now amended our payment process to include a ‘wealth warning’ but advise all of our customers to use another card type e.g. VISA, Mastercard, SWITCH etc where no such problem occurs.
