The webinar was presented very well with both speakers having a clear understanding of the changes and implications that the MDR will have. Both speakers were able to help with all questions with a clear understanding of their answers and applicability. Both speakers were very clear and very helpful with all questions and all parts were very informative, i really liked the workshops.

Every speaker was phenomenal, very informative and put in the extra effort to do the research to answer any questions they didn't know the answer to then and there. Could not improve the webinar any more than how it was. Overall I was really impressed. Best webinar by Management forum by far - and I look forward to many more training sessions hopefully with Janette.

After completing the course, I feel much more aware of the current regulatory environment surrounding medical devices. Overall, I would say that this training achieved what was intended. I particularly liked the workshops that allowed us to apply what we learned and appreciated how many resources were provided to us through the course of the training. The topics selected were pretty comprehensive, I found that the collective expertise of the presenters was top class and the information was generally well represented. I would definitely opt to attend another Management Forum training event – very professional and well organized.

I hoped to achieve an overall picture of the new Medical Device Regulation and I think I accomplished that. The level of detail was very good and the topics touched on all of the key areas. Janette was excellent. She had very good practical examples throughout the course and made sure she spoke to all of the people attending – it was not dependent on the experience of the participants. I can highly recommend any course with Janette to my colleagues, she made everyone feel welcomed and at ease. There were lots of practical examples and the topics flowed logically. The course provided me with a very good overview of the MDR with valuable practical examples.
