What “MedCourse Verified” Means
A check on the provider — so you can spend less time wondering whether a course is from a credible source.
When you see the Verified Provider mark on MedCourse, it means we have reviewed the provider and back them as a credible source of education for UK resident doctors.
It's a check on the provider — not a line-by-line audit of every individual course. We don't create, deliver, or sell these courses ourselves, so always check the provider's own terms before booking.
Our standards
A provider earns the mark when, on review, they meet all of the following.
Legitimate & contactable
A real organisation or individual, with a working website, a reachable contact, and clarity on who is behind it.
Relevant to UK resident doctors
Courses genuinely aimed at the UK medical training pathway — not generic or unrelated CPD.
Accurate listings
Descriptions, prices, dates, and claims (CPD points, accreditation) are truthful and kept current.
Credible delivery
Evidence the courses actually run and are delivered professionally: a track record, faculty credentials, learner feedback, or a first-hand look.
Fair & transparent
Clear pricing, honest marketing, and sensible booking and refund terms.
Good standing
No unresolved complaints or red flags, and responsive when issues are raised.
What it doesn't mean
Verification covers the provider, not a guarantee of every course, price, or date. MedCourse is an independent directory — we don't create, deliver, or sell the courses; booking, payment, and delivery all happen on the provider's own website.
The mark is carried by providers on a paid MedCourse plan (and exempt national bodies and charities) — but it isn't sold as a standalone badge. Every provider is reviewed against the standards above before they're listed, the review is revisited if issues are raised, and the mark is removed if those standards slip. See how providers list with us.
