Specialised Organelles and Structures (eg. Sarcolemma, Sarcoplasmic Reticulum, T-Tubules, Undulipodia and Microvilli)
The Anatomy of Cellular Division (Review, Characteristic Interphase Structures, Characteristic Mitosis Structures)
Surface Anatomy
Anatomy
Terminology (Regions and Positions of the Body, Planes and Views of the Body, Locational and Directional Terminology, Descriptive Terms, Numerical Terms)
Surface Anatomy
Superficial Structures, Features and Markings (Head, Neck, Back, Anterior Torso, Upper Extremities and Lower Extremities).
Practical Use of Surface Anatomy (Inspection, Palpation, Auscultation, Percussion, Measuring Vital Signs, Blood Testing and Signs versus Symptoms)
Systemic Anatomy I
Systemic Anatomy (Integumentary, Nervous, Endocrine, Immune etc)
Organisation of the Body

The Immune System (Thymus, Spleen, Bone Marrow and Lymphatic System)
The Male Reproductive System (External Components and Spermatogenesis in the Seminiferous Tubules of the Testes)
The Female Reproductive System (Uterus, Vagina, External Genitalia, Ovaries and Fallopian Tubes, Accessory Glands and the Breast and Mammary Tissue).
Regional Anatomy I
Regional Anatomy (Integument, Peripheral Nervous System, Vasculature, Skeleton, Musculature)
Musculature (Brevi, Extensor, Indicis, Longus, Palmar etc).
Bone (Girdle, Notch, Spine, Tuberosity etc).
Vasculature and Miscellaneous - Axilla, Cubital, Palpate etc.
The Cranial Cavity - Bones of the Skull and Facial Bones
Thoracic Cavity (Oral and Nasal Cavities, Paranasal Sinuses, Nasopharynx, Oropharynx, Laryngopharynx, Larynx, Laryngeal Membranes, Ligaments and Muscles, Trachea, Bronchial Tree, the Lungs and Diaphragm)
The Abdominopelvic Cavity (Oesophagus, Stomach, Small Intestine and Large Intestine)
Regional Anatomy II
The Upper Extremities - Anatomical features of (Humerus, Ulna, Radius, Carpals, Metacarpals, Phalanges; Musculature of the Upper Extremities, Innervation of the Upper Extremity, Vasculature of the Upper Extremity).
The Lower Extremities (Anatomical Features of - the Pelvis, the Femur, the Tibia, the Fibula, the Tarsals, the Metatarsals, the Phalanges, Innervation of the Upper Extremity and Vasculature of the Lower Extremities).
Radiographic and Diagnostic Anatomy
Medical Imaging (X-Ray, CAT scan, MRI, PET Scan and Ultrasound)
Diagnostic Anatomy (Abdominopelvic Cavity, Abdominopelvic Quadrants)

Each lesson culminates in an assignment which is submitted to the school, marked by the school's tutors and returned to you with any relevant suggestions, comments, and if necessary, extra reading.
