A copy of the flyer to display on your notice boards is available below:
There are 20 places to offer per month to pharmacy technicians working in community pharmacies across England. After successfully completing the 'Introduction to ACPT e-assessment', people can apply for a place on the next available cohort, via the CPPE website: www.cppe.ac.uk/career/acpt
You can find more information about the programme in the CPPE detailed programme handbook
NB: Pharmacy technicians working in large multiples that have their own in-house programmes (Boots & Lloyds) are not eligible for the programme
Comment from the CPPE lead for the programme:
This is a time-limited offer that is funded by the Pharmacy Integration Fund (PhIF). The deciding factor for future funding on a wider scale for ACPT training will be uptake of the programme so your support is really important.
There are FAQs and further info on the dedicated web page: www.cppe.ac.uk/acpt or if your questions are still not unanswered, you can email acpt@cppe.ac.uk directly.
