Normmed Academy

Train. Practise. Operate.

Cadaver courses, workshops and scientific collaboration with surgeons around the world, throughout the year.

An implant is only as good as the hands that place it. That is why education is not an add-on at Normmed: it travels with every system we supply.

We bring surgeons, theatre teams and our own engineers to the same table, on cadaver stations, around instrument trays and in front of the fluoroscopy screen, so that the first case with a Normmed system is not the first time the team has handled it.

Normmed Academy around the world

Training surgeons across continents, throughout the year

We work with surgeons from many parts of the world: cadaver courses, hands-on workshops, international congresses, and joint publications and clinical studies between hospitals.

Science & education

Science and education come first

At Normmed we believe scientific work and education matter as much as the implants we make. We work with surgeons from many parts of the world, and we act as a bridge between hospitals for joint publications and clinical studies.

Surgeons around the world

From Europe and the Middle East to Africa, Latin America and Asia, we work with surgeons in courses, in theatre and in research.

A bridge between hospitals

We bring hospitals and surgeons in different countries together for joint publications and clinical studies.

Research that gets published

University and hospital teams have used Normmed implants in peer-reviewed studies.

Education all year round

Cadaver courses, workshops and online sessions, on several continents, every year.

Our approach

Education is part of the system

Hands-on, not slides

Most of the time in our courses is spent at the station: approach, instrumentation and implant placement, repeated until the sequence is familiar.

Surgeons teach surgeons

Courses are led by experienced regional faculty. Our engineers and product specialists support every station with the instrument sets and implants the participants will use.

Close to the operating room

We take education to the regions where our implants are used, and we train theatre teams on the instrument sets before the first case.

Featured course

Spine cadaver workshop, Chulabhorn Hospital, Bangkok

Over two days in August 2026, more than 40 surgeons from Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia worked at cadaver stations on posterior spinal fixation: pedicle screw placement under fluoroscopy and minimally invasive technique, with Normmed instrument sets prepared and supported by our team.

Two days, one question: how does the implant behave on the table?
