The aim of this course is to build the confidence and competence of pharmacy professionals who are starting to work in community practice for the first time. This includes pharmacy professionals that have just qualified and those moving to community pharmacy practice for the first time from another sector.

To help you reflect on your confidence and competence, you will work through the Preparing for community pharmacy self-assessment framework. Completing the self-assessment framework at the start of the programme helps you identify the key topics you need to learn more about to develop your knowledge and skills in preparation for starting practice.
