Want to learn at your own pace and on your own schedule? Why not try an NB Medical pre-recorded course?
With a pre-recorded NB course, you can work your way through a course at your own leisure and at your own speed. We offer 3 and 6 hour courses, broken down into topics, available 24 hours a day to suit your own schedule.
The Hot Topics GP Update course is the original one-day course to update GPs with the latest developments in the literature and to serve as a platform for CPD and help to deliver better patient care. The course revolves around short, engaging presentations that merge recent clinical evidence with real-life clinical scenarios.

The Diabetes for Primary Care webinar is ideal for all GPs, practice nurses and pharmacists needing an update in diabetes, and not just for GPs with a special interest. As diabetes becomes ever more common and at the same time the management becomes more complex, this webinar aims to help break down all of the research into bite-size topics.
