HEALTH Education England has announced the availability of up to 2,000 post-registration training places for community pharmacists, in an initiative to be paid for the government's Pharmacy Integration Fund which aims to help transform the role of pharmacy in the UK.
Courses will be offered at Bath, Manchester, Keele, Exeter and De Montfort universities, with options including 'introduction to pharmacy public health services,' 'applied therapeutics' and 'mental health' worth up to 60 credits - equivalent to a postgraduate certificate in pharmacy.
The funding does not cover supervision or remuneration for study time and participating pharmacists must be sponsored by a pharmacy to access the modules.
