History

Yesterday's visionaries. Today's leaders.

More than 40 years ago, in light of a growing understanding of the critical nature of the relationship between pharmaceutical representatives and practicing clinicians, a handful of visionary physicians and five key pharmaceutical companies came together to create an organization that would strengthen and solidify that relationship. Today, that vision has become CMR Institute — the world's leading provider of educational solutions for healthcare representatives and managers.

For more than four decades, our certification and certificate programs have been setting the standard for educating healthcare representatives, providing content and methods that keep pace with an ever-changing landscape. We serve more than 12,000 students annually and provide services for more than 75 pharmaceutical and biotech companies worldwide, including nine of the top ten firms in this sector.
