Meducate Academy’s summer season is a hive of activity, focused on preparing for the upcoming academic year. The team is busy refining courses and materials to deliver top-notch medical education. Intensive teaching sessions for Physician Associate programs at Chester University and collaborations with Pharmacy students at The University of Birmingham have been completed recently. New partnerships, including with Cliniskills and The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital in Birmingham, enhance our impact, offering clinical education to students from Aston University and the University of Birmingham. Additionally, we are preparing for The Pharmacy Show at the NEC in October, where we will showcase our expertise in consultation and clinical skills through interactive workshops. Meducate Academy is gearing up for a dynamic year ahead, committed to innovation and excellence in medical education.

Meducate Academy’s summer season isn’t just about kicking back and taking it easy. While the usual hustle and bustle of students may quiet down, behind the scenes, our team is ramping up efforts to ensure we’re ready to deliver high-quality medical education when the new term rolls around.

Teaching and Preparations in Full Swing

Despite the quieter halls, Meducate Academy is abuzz with activity. Our dedicated team is hard at work, fine-tuning our courses and preparing materials for the upcoming academic year. Sessions are still underway, particularly focused on training Physician Associates and Medical Students and preparing for the unique challenges that lie ahead.

Recently, we wrapped up intensive teaching sessions for Physician Associate programs at Chester University and partnered with Pharmacy students at The University of Birmingham, ensuring they are equipped with the latest knowledge and skills needed in their respective fields.

Forging New Alliances and Celebrating Success Stories

Summer presents the perfect opportunity for us to expand our horizons and build new partnerships. This year has been particularly fruitful, marked by significant collaborations that promise to elevate Meducate Academy’s impact on medical education.

Among our most exciting new partnerships is with Cliniskills, a respected group of healthcare professionals and educators specializing in healthcare training. Their expertise in patient care and healthcare education aligns perfectly with our mission to provide comprehensive and impactful medical education. We’re thrilled to join forces with Cliniskills as Associate Clinical Educators and Medical Role-players, contributing to their mission of advancing healthcare through targeted development programs.

Additionally, we are honoured to announce our collaboration with The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital in Birmingham, where we will be involved in supplying Associate Clinical Educators for the teaching sessions for medical students from Aston University and the University of Birmingham. These sessions, focusing on Musculoskeletal (MSK) examinations, will be conducted twice weekly throughout the academic terms. This partnership signifies a significant step forward in our commitment to delivering high-quality medical education in collaboration with esteemed healthcare institutions. More Information will follow once we start the sessions in August 2024.
