Reviews for Ian’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.

Management Forum have become my go-to provider of life science training. They always find excellent speakers who present their subject matter in a very knowledgeable, complete and thoroughly enjoyable way. I have always found Management Forum courses to be excellent value for money and the New Medical Device Regulation course was no exception.

The speakers were very professional and knowledgeable. They delivered the content in an easy format and allowed plenty of time for questions and interaction from the attendees.
I particularly liked the section regarding the context of the regulation and background to its development which will help me when explaining this to my clients.

[The speakers were] all very knowledgeable. The whole course was very reassuring with the 'big monster' of the MDR being broken down so that it appears manageable and less scary. It was full of helpful advice both general and specific to my products.
