The following learning is hosted by elearning for healthcare. We have included it here so that you are able to see all of the learning programmes that are linked to in this version of the PQS. For more information on how to access this learning, and gather the required evidence, please visit the Pharmaceutical Services Negotiating Committee PQS page.
There are three learning programmes and associated assessments linked to these elements of this criterion. All of these programmes are accessible via elearning for healthcare (elfh) and your role will guide which of these programmes you should complete, as described below.
An activity report can be generated from the elfh user account on completion of the training and assessments. Contractors must keep a copy of the activity report for all pharmacy staff, as a certificate of evidence that they have completed the training.
