MRI in Practice Online
Everything you need at one low price
With the ever-rising cost of living and tight squeezes on training budgets, we strive to offer you the very highest quality MRI training and CPD fulfilment for a sensible, affordable, all-inclusive fee.
At £800 GBP ($1000 USD, A$1,600 AUD) our course price is the the most competitive it has ever been (adusting for inflation the course is now less than half the price it was in the year 2000).
Other providers charge high prices (per hour of taught content) seem to increase their prices every year and may even charge you numerous times for separate courses covering basics, advanced and clinical MRI. With our comprehensive programme you don't have to choose. When participants register on the MRI in Practice course, it includes all of the basics (including safety) plus the advanced topics and the clinical technique.
Our streaming lectures may be watched, rewound, and revised on demand and authors Dr Catherine Westbrook and Dr John Talbot, will be on hand to take any questions and provide any help or guidance on how to use our online learning environment.
If study leave is tight, or participants are very new to MRI, these sessions can be attended over two separate course deliveries if preferred. This allows participants to get a grasp of the basics and put them into practice before starting on the advanced subjects.
That's not all - the entire Handbook of MRI Technique course is included for free. Two courses for less than you would expect to pay for a single course!
Over the years, participants have often requested clinical technique sessions on the course. Time limitations of the live course made this impossible, now with our online format we can now include this content free of charge. We have created a separate course based on our Handbook of MRI Technique. After participants have enjoyed the 4-day MRI in Practice course, they receive credits to watch the entire Handbook of MRI Technique course on-demand, whenever it suits them.
The first five lectures of the Handbook course are designed to form the perfect revision for the topics covered by the MRI in Practice course. Although they cover similar terrain to the lectures in the main course, many offer a different perspective, and there are new additional animated diagrams throughout. Participants tell us that they really help to cement some of the concepts into place.
The other five lectures are absolutely indispensable for those who are new to the field and wish to get up to speed with clinical practice in MRI. The course covers all of the most commonly-scanned body areas. These include the brain, spine, body, upper limb and lower limb.
What exactly is included in the price?
In summary, participants will enjoy:
✔️ 4 days online teaching via our custom-built online learning environment
✔️ All-day access to the world-renowned MRI educators Dr. Catherine Westbrook and Dr. John Talbot via messages, chat, text, audio and video channels.
✔️ 26 streaming lectures featuring our famous computer generated imagery, namely…
✔️ 16 MRI in Practice lectures (20 hours)
✔️ 12-month access to our 10 Handbook of MRI lectures (6 hours of revision videos and clinical technique instruction).
✔️ Interactive revision sessions for every main topic.
✔️ 100 interactive animations accessed from our learning portal.
All at a price that beats any of our competitors. In addition, the course is a valuable source of CPD:
- UK - Society and College of Radiographers fulfilling learning outcomes 1,2,3,6,7,9,11,19 as defined by CPD Now.
- Australia - ASMIRT - offers 30 HOURS of CPD appellation
Your assurance of quality
If you are a manager or practice education lead, the price is important, but you will also be looking for the highest quality educational experience for your staff. The quality of this course is assured:
- We are not only endorsed by the Society and College of Radiographers, but also by over 20 international professional bodies and educational establishments.
- We are the go-to MRI education provider for the NHS and several of the largest private medical companies.
- Our courses have been used to enhance the MRI curriculum in university programmes in Chicago, Cambridge, Oxford, Dublin, Columbia (Missouri), Qatar, Sharjah, and Zagreb.
- The course has also been adopted by professional bodies in Australia, Sweden, Norway, Croatia, Kuwait, Malta, Romania, Kenya and Serbia.
- The presenters, Dr Catherine Westbrook and Dr John Talbot are both industry-recognised experts in online learning (since 2005) both hold Master of Science Degrees in MRI, are both qualified in Education to Doctoral level and are both Fellows of the Higher Education Academy.
We are not aware of any other MRI courses having a faculty qualified to this level. It seems obvious that an MRI education course should use presenters who are qualified in both MRI and education, but not all of them are. Please take care when deciding on a course provider, fraudulent or fake education is becoming an increasing concern in pedagogical circles, especially with recent developments in AI. If you are in any doubt about an education provider not having the necessary qualifications to be providing educational services, ask to see the learning and teaching certification for all members of their faculty. This must at least be a PgC in Learning and Teaching, and for teaching post graduates (such as radiographers) it should be an EdD or equivalent.
Our course currently enjoys an average customer excellence rating of [newfeedback-D10]% from our [newfeedback-D11] respondents attending between [newfeedback-D12] and [newfeedback-D13]. These statistics are collected anonymously at the end of every course via Google Forms.

A little taster of what we offer on our online course...
The online course uses a combination of HD streaming video to present our trademark CGI graphics and user-friendly analogies that give our course an unsurpassed conceptual clarity that our participants really love. Our lectures use computer-generated imagery produced in-house and are the result of 15 years development and over 1000 CGI models and animations.
Some online course providers present their lectures directly from Zoom or by screen-sharing their own computer - this tends to result in a sub-optimal, jerky, low-resolution presentation with occasional dropouts due to loss of internet connection by the host and having to share bandwidth between a number of participants.
We don't do this, as teaching experts with over 30 years of experience in distance learning and blended learning (and, with formal academic qualifications in technology-enhanced learning) we use a blend of live face-to-face live sessions in Zoom (to introduce and conclude the course), an instant messaging and VoIP social platform which allows ad hoc Q/A and streaming HD video that is delivered via a professional broadcast server (AWS) to ensure the very highest quality and uninterrupted service , here is an example of what you can expect from our lectures…
