Medical Secretarial Courses

Pitman Training is one of Britain's most respected for its medical secretary courses. Indeed, our Medical Secretarial Diploma is approved by AMSPAR.
Our approach is to equip you with all the practical skills you'll need to be a confident medical secretary right from day one, whether you've studied a full medical secretarial course leading to a diploma qualification or simply elected to enjoy our introduction to medical secretarial terminology or medical audio transcription courses.
So when you study at Pitman Training, you can be sure of a value learning experience.
Our training is totally flexible, so you can study when it suits you - there's no rigid timetable and no rushing to get to a class. It's ideal if you're already working and don't have much time.
You'll enjoy the company of a friendly tutor at all times when you attend our training centres as you work through a self-paced programme built completely around your needs.
While most students choose to study for our "Medical Secretarial Diploma," some simply study "The Medical Secretary - An Introduction," which takes the average student 50 hours to complete, or "Medical Audio Transcription," which takes an average of 10 hours if you're an experienced audio typist.

  Imagine being able to come to a training centre at hours that suit you and not having to come on the same day or at the same time every visit.

  We're open Monday and Wednesday 09:00 - 20:00, Tuesday and Thursday from 09:00 - 17:00, Fridays from 09:00 - 15:00 and Saturdays from 09:00-12:00, so it's easy to fit your studies around your other commitments, even if you work irregular shifts.
  Our courses use pre-recorded lessons where you work with audio and a quality workbook, carrying out increasingly challenging tasks and testing your skill with lots of exercises.
  And whenever you're stuck, confused or need a little motivation, our friendly training team is right there with you to help you along.
  Think of it as a blend of computer based training with a dash of one-to-one tuition when you want it.
  Most of our students like this training method for three clear reasons:
  1. The flexibility of not needing a timetable.
  2. The fact that it's impossible to miss a class so you can never fall behind.
  3. You're never held up by slower students and you're never the slower student yourself.
