Accessing BMJ Learning through your Institution

Access through your Hospital, University or employer

If your institution has a BMJ Learning subscription, you can access the full platform at no additional cost. There are several ways to activate your access, depending on how your institution has set things up.

If you're unsure which method applies to you, contact your librarian or IT department - they'll be able to confirm how your institution provides access.

Institutional link (Safe URL)

Many institutions provide a dedicated link to BMJ Learning through their library portal, intranet, or resource page. Clicking this link will take you to the BMJ Learning Login page, where you can either sign in with an existing account or create a new one by selecting 'Sign up with your organisation'.

IP address recognition

If your institution uses IP-based access, you'll be recognised automatically when connected to your institution's network - for example, via on-site Wi-Fi or VPN. Simply sign up here while connected, and your institutional access will be applied.

Institutional email domain

Some institutions have authorised their email domain for automatic access. If this applies to your institution, you can register or sign in using your institutional email address (e.g. yourname@hospitalname.nhs.uk), and your access will be activated automatically. If you're unsure whether your institution has enabled this, check with your librarian or IT department.

Access code

If your institution has provided you with an access code, you can enter it during sign-up on this page under the 'Do you have an access code?' section.

To add an access code to an existing account:

2) Sign in if prompted

3) Enter your code in the Access code field

4) Click 'Save'

Still having trouble?

If none of the above methods work, your institution may not yet have activated access, or you may need to contact your librarian to confirm the correct route. You can also reach our support team at any time.
