Sponsorship Guidelines

Other types of sponsorship arrangements

 
BMJ Masterclasses may work with sponsors in different ways.

1. Internationally, we may choose to run any of the UK BMJ Masterclass programmes which may be adapted to address local issues, and adhere to relevant local accreditation requirements. We will take the views of sponsors into account when deciding this. The model for working in this way may include the sponsor recruiting delegates.
2. In a BMJ Masterclass non-clinical programme, an organisation may be permitted to run their own session during the day:
• In this instance it will be clearly stated on the programme materials that the content provided is independent of the BMJ core content within the Masterclass.
• Under such an agreement, the BMJ Masterclass editorial team may permit the company to use their own employees to present the relevant educational content of the session, and therefore section 2.4.5 in the standard guidelines for sponsored symposia will not apply.
• The organisation involved in running the session will still be required to submit their content and speakers for approval by the BMJ Masterclass editors.
