Cornerstone Medical Education has a long-standing track record in delivering high-quality, hands-on procedural training and this programme was previously RCGP accredited, reflecting its established educational quality and national recognition.

Together, this accreditation confirms that the course meets robust national standards for clinical governance, educational design, and practical competence.

This course is open to all regulated healthcare professionals involved in, or looking to develop, joint injection practice - including those delivering corticosteroid, hyaluronic acid, PRP and other orthobiologic injections.

It is designed to support clinicians at every stage of their joint injection journey. Whether you are:

  • a beginner looking to build confidence and foundational technique,

  • an intermediate practitioner aiming to refine accuracy and anatomical understanding, or

  • an experienced injector seeking an update, skills refresh, or exposure to newer injection modalities,

you will find the right level of challenge and support.

Our flexible, learner-focused approach ensures no one is left behind and no one is left waiting. Teaching is highly practical, prioritising hands-on supervised injection technique over heavy theory, with small-group rotation through focused stations. This gives every delegate maximum opportunity to develop safe, transferable, real-world skills they can immediately take back into clinical practice.

Our Joint Injection Courses for Healthcare Professionals are delivered at multiple locations across the UK. You can find full details of dates and locations below.

We’re proud to offer outstanding value for money, making our Joint Injection Courses some of the most affordable and accessible in the UK. Our course is just £325, which is the cheapest on the market

Yes, for attending our 1-day Joint Injection Course, you will receive 6.5 CPD points.

Our Joint Injection Course gives you the practical skills, confidence, and up-to-date guidance to perform joint injections in a safe, simulated environment. It’s designed as high-quality CPD, not a formal qualification, so it doesn’t automatically grant independent practice rights.

Exactly what you need to practice independently will depend on your role and workplace. For some, this may involve further qualifications; for others, it could be CPD training like this course combined with local competency sign-off, mentorship, or employer requirements.

If you’re not a prescriber, you’ll also need local arrangements for anaesthetic use under a PGD or PSD before treating patients.

The course is popular with doctors, nurses, paramedics, and other NMC/HCPC-registered professionals - whether you’re building a foundation in joint injections or refreshing existing skills.

With synthetic skin there are no entry restrictions, and you’ll get the chance to practice techniques in a safe, supportive setting.

Rather than a pass/fail exam, you’ll take part in formative assessments designed to strengthen your skills and support your professional growth.
