For many years it has been widely recognised in the educational field that the most effective learning takes place when the learner’s senses are activated on a multiple level – in other words, Seeing, Hearing AND Doing!!!

That’s why you’ll only see us promoting classroom based learning and not on line/PC based learning, so that ALL learning styles and senses are stimulated and included. You will learn like never before and be speaking like an anatomist in no time!

It also offers the learner the opportunity to question and clarify a subject as complex as A&P……there and then.
