Whether you re a complete beginner or an experienced secretary wishing to move into medical, we can accommodate you on this nationally recognised Medical Secretarial Diploma programme.
Our goal is to equip you with all the secretarial skills, medical terminology, confidence and competence to undertake this critically important role.
You can start this programme at any time and study at times to suit you, even if you have irregular availability.
We're open from 09:00-20:00 Monday to Thursday, from 09:00-16:30 on Fridays and from 10:00-16:00 on Saturdays.
While students have up to one year to complete the programme, the more time you put in, the more quickly you'll graduate.
The Pitman Training Medical Secretarial Diploma is largely a self-paced programme where our friendly, experienced on-site trainers guide you through pre-recorded lessons, using a workbook and PC to make the most of your study time. Some of the available elective subjects are taught in a traditional classroom style.
Students must complete 9 core modules and 2 elective modules to earn their Medical Secretarial Diploma.
An elective module is one chosen by the student in conjunction with their Course Advisor and its purpose is to allow the diploma to be tailored towards the current needs of the jobs market or to the special interests of the student.
If you are already skilled in any of the programme's core modules, you may qualify for exemptions, saving you study time and money.
As this diploma programme offers a high degree of tailorability, prices and duration are calculated for the specific needs of each student, based on exemptions for their existing skills and their choices of electives.
For that reason, we strongly recommend you speak with one of our Course Advisors to identify the best route for you.
