Introductory Life Sciences Training for New Starters and Career Changers
Onboarding new starters into life sciences? We work with L&D and HR teams to deliver introductory training programmes that give new employees a solid grounding in pharmaceutical development, medical device regulations, and biopharma fundamentals. Our beginner-level courses are designed for professionals transitioning into the industry or moving between disciplines, covering the essential knowledge they need to contribute effectively from day one.
What Do Beginner Life Sciences Training Programmes Cover?
Our introductory team training programmes cover the key concepts your new hires need to understand — from how medicines and medical devices are developed and regulated, through to the roles different functions play across the product lifecycle. We can tailor content for specific departments, so your regulatory affairs team gets a different introduction than your quality or commercial teams, but everyone leaves with a shared understanding of the industry landscape. Once your team has completed an introductory programme, many organisations progress their staff onto our specialist courses in areas like pharmaceutical training, medical device training, or cell and gene therapy training.
Structured Induction Programmes for Life Sciences Teams
If you’re bringing in cohorts of graduates or career changers, we can design a structured induction programme delivered across multiple sessions. This gives new starters time to absorb the material and apply it in their day-to-day work between modules.
