Why Erudical exists
Teaching is not optional in medicine, but the time to learn how is. On calls, rotations, exams and applications all come first — so the teaching course is the one that slips, and then it is the one holding up the application.
One subject only
We don't sell a catalogue of courses. Teacher training for medics is the whole business, so it gets the whole of our attention.
Written with consultants
The curriculum was built with consultants from several hospitals, from conception onward, with decades of teaching-training experience between them.
Honest arithmetic
An eight-hour day containing six hours of live teaching, certified at 6 CPD hours. Six is the IMT minimum. We state both numbers and inflate neither.
What doctors say afterwards
We ask for written feedback at the end of every course and publish what comes back — the criticism as well as the praise.
Feedback collected from every course since September 2019. Read the reviews in full, including the seven who said they would not recommend us.
Why we run a conference
Erudical set up NMERC, the National Medical Education & Research Conference, and organises and funds it with no sponsors. The reason is arithmetic: a teaching course scores 1 point for IMT, while a national oral presentation can score up to 8 for IMT 2027. No course on its own gets you there.
Every Erudical enrolment includes a place at NMERC 2026, online on 14 November, where you can present your work as an oral or a poster. How presentations are scored.
The team
Eleven doctors write, review and teach the course, alongside the hospital consultants who shaped it. Every one is a practising UK clinician with a real teaching role.
Dr Rohan Agarwal
Chief Education Officer
A Cambridge medicine graduate (Gonville & Caius) who spent twelve years building the UK's largest university admissions company and authored over 100 books on admissions tests and interviews. He has taught physiology to undergraduates, interviewed medical school applicants for Cambridge, and published research on bone physiology.
He leads the curriculum at Erudical, writing and reviewing the course material himself, and set up NMERC to give trainees somewhere to present their work.

Course Authors
The doctors who wrote the course material, each leading one part of it, and who review it with every cohort.
Course Author · Small-Group Teaching
Zenab has taught medical students for more than four years, from one-to-one tutorials to lecture groups of thirty and more. Zenab wrote much of the course's small-group teaching material and leads the session on giving feedback to a struggling learner, refining it with every cohort based on what learners found hardest.
Course Author · Assessment
Anni is a doctor in the North West Thames deanery, a regular examiner for medical students and an experienced small-group teacher who has helped run undergraduate examinations. Anni writes the course's assessment material: setting questions, marking fairly and designing stations that test what they claim to.
Course Author and Live Tutor · Bedside Teaching
Haroon has built a teaching practice around the bedside and has taught several groups of medical students. Haroon wrote the course's ward-based teaching section, on teaching well in the few minutes a busy shift allows, and teaches on the live course day.
Course Author · Online and Remote Teaching
Katherine has taught students online, in person and through workshops for the past three years. Katherine wrote the course's online and remote teaching material, from holding a room you cannot see to adapting teaching for the screen, and helped design the workshop structure used on the live day.
Course Author · Course Design
Zhen has tutored medical students and organised large teaching courses for them. Zhen wrote the course-design material, covering how to plan a teaching programme, sequence sessions and run the day itself, and that experience shaped how the Erudical course is structured.
