MMU has been set up to provide Governments, Ministries of Health and health departments and education authorities, with access to highest standard medical education at greatly reduced costs due to the combination of multimedia and distance education. MMU therefore provides the opportunity to bring countries and doctors up to modern medical standards at reduced costs and shorter timeframes.

MMU already provides full national medical education services and works with key education and government stakeholders. While MMU offers traditional medical courses via distance education - thus alleviating costs of travel and accommodation - it also provides strategic medical education and intensive medical education to overcome global shortages of trained medical personnel. All programs are authored by top medical academics in their field, mainly from developed nations and reviewed for doctors and patients in developing nations.

Costs to participating practitioners are greatly reduced due to strategic delivery methods, while maintaining and promoting highest global standards.
