First off, you might be wondering how our video courses compare to the competition. Glad you asked! Let me draft up a handy comparison table:
Other Video Courses | Formwork Video Courses | |
|---|---|---|
Lecturer & Setting | A person standing up in a well-lit professional studio, often wearing professional attire, e.g. a suit. | A dude sitting hunched over in front of a slightly blurry laptop webcam, sometimes at night with terrible lighting, wearing a hoodie. |
Length Of Course | Many hours. Takes multiple weeks to watch. | Not many hours. Can be watched in a few days. |
Depth & Pragmatism | You'll literally walk through the regulations word-by-word. Afterwards, you'll still have trouble creating your documentation, but at least you could now become a lecturer yourself. | We walk you through our condensed templates instead and show you how to create your own documentation. You won't fall asleep. |
I think the table covers the main points. The TLDR is that if you want to get your medical device compliance done in a fast and pragmatic way, choose the Formwork video courses. If you'd like to go super deep for no rational reason, choose our competitors. All of our videos are free. Browse our free medical device compliance videos or watch them on the OpenRegulatory YouTube channel. The same videos are organized into courses inside Formwork, close to your documentation workflow.
Anyway! How does it work?
The screenshot below shows the older Starter Course and Wizard labels. Today, the course videos are free and available on the website, YouTube, and inside Formwork:
Here's how they compare:
Today, the Formwork video courses are free. They cover the practical questions startups ask most often, plus step-by-step topics such as ISO 13485 QMS setup, IEC 62304 software documentation, risk management, usability, and technical documentation.
Most course videos mirror what we publish in our free medical device compliance videos and on the OpenRegulatory YouTube channel. Inside Formwork, they are organized as courses alongside the templates and documentation workflow, which makes it easier to learn and work at the same time.

How Video Courses Work
When clicking on a video course, you're greeted with, you guessed it, a video:
On the left side, you can view all the videos in this course. Click on one of those to watch another video.
In the center, you see the video. I guess you know how videos work.
Some videos are linked to an OpenRegulatory template. This is actually very cool, because it enables you to fill out your documentation while you're watching the video. Videos with a linked document are indicated on the left side by having a the title of the linked document underneath them - in the screenshot above, you can see that video 01 ("The Magical Wizard [...]") is linked to the Intended Use document.
You can pop open the document editor by clicking on "Document Editor" in the top right corner (just above the video). Once you do that, the document editor will slide open in a very spectacular fashion:
