Online, UNsupervised learning

The College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine (CMVM) is pausing intake into all of the Edinburgh Imaging Academy post-graduate courses and programmes for the foreseeable future. The University of Edinburgh is re-evaluating and re-organising its online teaching portfolio. CMVM has committed to support fully, existing students through to the scheduled completions of their degree programmes. Thank you for visiting our now historical, online pages.

You used to be able to take almost all of our courses more cheaply without enrolling on a degree programme or working towards University credit, via our online, UNsupervised, self-directed learning (USSD) mode of study, which is eligible for Continuing Professional Development & Medical Education (CPD / CME) recognition.

Online, unsupervised learning

Online, UNsupervised learning allows you "bare bones" access to our online teaching materials.

You will have access to:

  • online lectures
  • lecture pdf downloads to facilitate note taking
  • self-assessments
  • resource / reading lists (downloadable as pdf)

Access to our online, UNsupervised learning materials will expire after 1 year.

You will NOT have access to:

  • our tutors / online academic support
  • the University of Edinburgh library (i.e. you will have to source your own portal to access our resource / reading list recommendations)
  • our interactive activities
  • virtual classrooms / discussion boards

This means you:

  • can start to study whenever you want
  • study at your own pace over your 1 year period of access, not tied in to our teaching schedule
  • do not need to demonstrate competence in English language
  • will not receive University of Edinburgh credits
  • will not show on your transcript
  • will be able to count hours of study towards Continuing Professional Development / Medical Education (CPD / CME)
