12-Week Mentorship Programme

Your team should never lose a deal — or a PMCPA case — because of a judgement gap.

1:1 and team coaching to sharpen approval judgement, reduce rework, and build signatory-ready decision-making — led by an ABPI Final Medical Signatory.

◆  Available exclusively as a company block booking — minimum 6 seats.  Next cohort: June 2026 — accepting corporate enquiries now.  ◆

Sound familiar?

The approval problems no one talks about openly

Materials keep getting kicked back by the signatory — with vague feedback that doesn’t help
Different reviewers give different answers on the same claim
Teams know the ABPI Code exists but can’t apply it under pressure
Approval loops add weeks to timelines and frustrate everyone
Nobody’s sure what “good” looks like for a meeting invite, a digital post, or a press release
Commercial impact gets diluted in the rush to make something “safe”

What participants say

Real outcomes from real teams

“What I valued most was working through the ABPI Code principles in a genuinely pragmatic way. Anzal doesn’t deal in theory — every concept was grounded in real decisions that teams like ours face every day.”

AQP — Mid-Size Biotech

“The programme was exceptionally well structured. The case studies and quizzes made the learning stick in a way that traditional training never would.”

Medical Affairs Manager — Global Pharma

“The group discussions around individual cases were the highlight. Hearing how colleagues in different roles approached the same compliance question was immediately applicable.”

Regulatory Affairs Lead — Specialty Pharma

“Anzal is extremely knowledgeable and flexible. He made space for us to bring our own examples and questions — sessions felt directly relevant, never generic. Every question answered thoroughly.”

Head of Commercial — UK Pharma

Who this is for

Built for the people who live the Code every day

Final Signatories wanting faster, safer approvals
Field & Brand teams planning meetings
Agencies producing signatory-ready work

How it works

A structured programme that improves judgement — fast

Each week combines bite-sized learning with real-world application — so you build compliant decision-making that holds up under pressure, not just in a classroom.

Weekly Modules + Podcasts + Case Quizzes

Each week focuses on one high-risk area: claims, meetings, digital, public comms, transfers of value. Short modules, a supporting podcast, and real PMCPA case quizzes — so you understand the “why” behind every decision.

Live Coaching + Weekly Sessions

Weekly live sessions turn learning into action. Real scenarios are stress-tested, common pitfalls are fixed, and your team builds confidence to defend decisions at sign-off.

Hands-On Final Workshop

The programme ends with a workshop where participants review real materials and apply everything they have learned — the session most graduates describe as the standout moment.

1:1 Viva-Style Feedback

Every participant gets an individual 1:1 session in viva format — focused on strengthening reasoning, identifying blind spots, and improving how decisions are justified. This is where confidence increases fastest.

12-Week Full Programme

Deep, lasting capability

Weekly modules, podcasts, quizzes, live coaching, hands-on workshop, and 1:1 viva feedback. Best for teams who want a permanent shift in how they work.

6-Week Fast-Track

Focused high-impact refresher

Condensed version covering the highest-risk areas. Ideal for experienced teams who need a focused refresher or have tight timelines.

“The final session — where we reviewed real materials and applied everything we’d learned — was the standout moment of the programme. It brought everything together in a way that gave me genuine confidence going back into my role.”

Your mentor

Dr. Anzal Qurbain

ABPI Final Medical Signatory GMC Registered Pharmaceutical Physician MBA — London Business School FFPM

I built this programme because I kept seeing the same problem from the signatory chair: talented, well-intentioned people making avoidable mistakes — not because they didn’t care about compliance, but because nobody had ever shown them how to think like a signatory.

Over years as a Final Medical Signatory across multiple therapy areas, I developed a way of approaching approval decisions that is practical, defensible, and commercially aware. This programme teaches exactly that — not rules to memorise, but judgement to apply.

Every session is grounded in real PMCPA cases and scenarios that genuinely come up in job bag reviews, medical meetings, and congress planning. If it doesn’t hold up in the real world, it doesn’t belong in the programme.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before booking

Is this available for individuals or just company teams?

This programme is offered to companies booking a minimum of 6 seats as a corporate cohort. There are no individual last-minute places. The cohort model means your team learns together, applies the content to shared challenges, and builds consistent compliance judgement across the group.

Is this training “clause-by-clause” ABPI teaching?

No. The focus is on practical judgement — how to think like a signatory, what good looks like, and how to make decisions that stand up to scrutiny. Clauses are referenced where helpful, but the core is application.

Can you tailor it to our therapy area and internal SOPs?

Yes. The programme is aligned to your internal workflows, material types, and therapy area so the learning translates directly into better job bags and smoother approvals.

Is it delivered online or in person?

Typically online to suit busy teams. The final workshop can be delivered in person depending on location and scheduling.

What do participants take away?

Practical frameworks, decision checklists, claim-strengthening logic, and risk-spotting prompts — plus access to the learning portal to revisit modules and case studies after the programme ends.

How do we find out about pricing and availability?

Pricing is shared on the discovery call, where we confirm fit, discuss team size, and agree focus areas. Book a 30-minute call using the button below — no obligation.
