NHS priorities

Whether it’s to prepare for the next Pharmacy Quality Scheme deadline, or to increase your confidence in helping people with a learning disability, this section provides topic-specific pages that link to current NHS priorities. This section will support you in keeping your knowledge and skills up to date in order to provide high-quality pharmacy services and be service-ready.

Public health

The public health agenda is embedded in pharmacy, yet topics such as emergency contraception or stop smoking support are as prevalent as ever. As well as our public health workshops, use this section to access a wide range of resources to assure and maintain your competence, all underpinned by the Declaration of Competence system.

Quality improvement leadership project


  • Released: 08/2026
  • Reviewed: N/A
  • Study time: 6h:30m

This workshop is only for pharmacy professionals who are taking part in the Leading for Change programme.

The quality improvement leadership project (QILP) group session is a retrospective structured discussion, designed to assess your leadership of a quality improvement project.

The aim of the quality improvement leadership project is for you to demonstrate how you have applied learning from the programme and developed your leadership skills in practice. This session allows your peers and an education supervisor to ask questions about your leadership experience and the application of quality improvement tools in leading your project.

Prior to attending the online group session, you will need to reflect on your leadership of the project and are expected to include these reflections in your presentation. 

During the online session you will receive feedback from peers about your project – what you did well and how you might have improved it. You will also have the opportunity to learn from your peers’ leadership learning journeys, as well as pick up ideas for future quality improvement work. 

Learning outcomes

On completion of all aspects of this learning programme you should be able to:

  • lead on a quality improvement leadership project that delivers on the priorities of your pharmacy, department or organisation
  • demonstrate the application of learning from the leading for change programme in the leadership of your project.
  • reflect on the development of your leadership skills.
  • identify opportunities for further leadership development by using peer feedback.
