Reviews for David’s courses

Was very useful. I feel I accomplished further knowledge about the implementation of MDR and IVDR and also what is on the horizon in terms of the UK regulations from the course. The content of update on IVDR was great as it was directly related to my work. I also enjoyed learning more about the history of the regulations/legislative process and gained some useful background knowledge on combination products.
