There are three handbooks that provide guidance for learners, employers, clinical supervisors and clinical mentors.

The Pathway and role progression handbook provides information about the content of the pathway and also suggests how the roles of pharmacy professionals working in primary care should progress.

The Clinical supervisor handbook provides information about what is expected of the clinical supervisors (appointed by the employer).

The clinical supervisor self-assessment form is for all clinical supervisors overseeing the progress of pharmacy professionals on a CPPE national training pathway. This form enables clinical supervisors to self-assess their suitability for this role, working through the statements in the form and accessing the links, if necessary, to update their knowledge. This form is for local use only and does not need to be submitted to CPPE.

The assessment handbook provides information on all of the assessments that pharmacy professionals must complete during the pathway.
