There are fewer and fewer resources available for further training on the job. Time in particular is at a premium, which means that further training courses must be easy to integrate into everyday working life.

We therefore provide you with the Medical Device Consultant training course as a fully-fledged online course, giving you absolute flexibility in terms of further training.
Learn and deepen the necessary knowledge step by step – at your own pace and with individual time management. The online course is completed with the “Medical Devices Consultant acc. to § 83 MPDG” certificate after successful completion of the test. Book the online course “Medical Devices Consultant acc. to § 83 MPDG” directly online now or submit a request for an individual offer for a face-to-face training course if you would prefer to obtain your certificate in a fixed scheduled period with a personal instructor.
