PAGB, the consumer healthcare association, has launched a new eLearning platform, open to both members and non-members, offering a comprehensive range of online training and development resources for the consumer healthcare industry.

Launched at the end of 2024, the eLearning platform was initially exclusive to PAGB members. It has now been expanded to include non-members, along with the addition of new content and courses.


Fully integrated with PAGB’s website, the eLearning platform provides a variety of on-demand training courses and webinar recordings, complementing the association’s year-round schedule of workshops and events.

From Essentials courses that cover foundational topics such as UK medicines regulations, to Deep Dive courses offering in-depth knowledge on specific areas like CBD and novel food, the eLearning content is designed to support users' professional development and expertise.

Additionally, the platform offers a collection of webinar recordings from past events, offering insights into various areas of consumer healthcare and PAGB membership. These recordings are currently exclusive to PAGB members.

Courses start at £125, with significant discounts available to PAGB members.

All courses can be purchased and completed directly through PAGB’s website, with certificates awarded for each course passed.

An introductory video is made available for each course, outlining its layout, objectives, and aims, allowing users to review the content before committing to the purchase of a course.

PAGB plans to continue expanding its eLearning offerings throughout the year.
