Equip yourself to deliver high-quality services
Our learning portfolio will support you in further developing your knowledge, skills and behaviours to provide high-quality pharmacy services which really make a difference to the health and wellbeing of the people using your services.
We are proud to put the patient at the centre of everything we do at CPPE. We have a large number of programmes to help you develop your person-centred practice. Visit the Consultation skills area to find out more.
The NHS Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework (CPCF) was launched in 2019 and set out a five-year plan of how community pharmacy will support the NHS Long Term Plan. Since 2024, community pharmacy has significantly increased the range of clinical services offered to patients and the wider NHS, and the focus of the current pharmacy contract is to embed these services. We have a range of programmes and resources to help equip you to deliver the three different service types: essential services, advanced services and national enhanced services as well as locally commissioned services.
Our NHS Pharmacy First area will support you to be ready to fulfil an integral role in provision of urgent and emergency care services.
The Pharmacy Quality Scheme is a priority for many pharmacies. We are here to support you in working towards and meeting the criteria.
Safeguarding is another priority for pharmacy professionals. One of the most important principles of safeguarding is that it is everyone’s responsibility. The e-learning for healthcare (elfh) safeguarding programmes and assessments can support you to meet your core mandatory safeguarding requirements. We have also developed an additional e-learning programme, Safeguarding children, young people and adults: level 2 case studies for pharmacy professionals, to help you apply your safeguarding knowledge in a pharmacy setting. To find out more and to access these programmes, visit our Safeguarding area.
To make sure you are service-ready take a look at the updated A guide to using the Declaration of Competence (DoC) system to find out if you are meeting your professional responsibilities. You can signpost commissioners to the Commissioners area to find out more about how CPPE can support them in the delivery of training for services in your locality.
