MIDIRS Gold Student subscription combines all the benefits of the Gold Standard Service with the opportunity to take advantage of a special up front payment discount. Subscribe to MIDIRS Gold until the end of your training and you can benefit from some massive discounts on your subscription fees.
For example, if you have three years until your end of training date, you can receive all the benefits of MIDIRS Gold Student for the price of two years’ subscription, saving £69.00 (UK Student)! Don’t worry if you’ve already started your training, you can still upgrade to Gold Student (see table to find your discount level).
