ENROLL NOWInsights Gathering is a Core MSL Competency
"It is expected that MSLs bring back actionable information. However, many fail to capture relevant data due to the nuanced nature of insights and a lack of integrated skills-based training. The MSL Insights Course is designed to address this training gap."
- Rich Swank, PhD, Co-creator of the MSL Insights Course & Former Head of US Field Medical and Global Field Medical Excellence at Amgen

What do MSLs say about the insights course?
From a New MSL:
"This course was incredibly helpful as a new MSL. Even after a full year as a MSL, it helped me see the full picture versus the very small portion we see as MSLs. This course empowered me to ask more questions and take action regarding insights. I would highly recommend it!"
From an Aspiring MSL:
"I did start and complete module 1 of the course yesterday. First thoughts: as someone who has deeply studied e-learning, pedagogy, and instructional design, I am extremely impressed with both the materials and what you both verbally state. I certainly appreciate how it was designed to minimize our cognitive load and ease our ability to authentically and deeply learn the information. One, knowing the broad strokes by how often certain things were repeated and two, I really love it when terms are clearly defined with words and examples. So I am pleased currently and feel like I have a good working start to understanding more about insights (and am excited to get my first MSL position where I can bring value to the team by generating insights, which is something I think I would be really good at when given the chance)! Looking forward to module 2!"
How Is This Course Different From Your Company's Insights Training?
