You may be supporting a pharmacist or a pharmacy technician in their training in the workplace. There is a lot of information on our Education gateway to support you and your trainees.
You can use CPPE learning materials to help your trainees demonstrate their GPhC performance standards. You can direct them to our online learning to keep up to date with clinical and therapeutics topics and improve personal development, communication, management and consultation skills. Other Gateway pages (NHS priorities, Clinical pharmacy and Public health) provide portals to CPPE learning materials and signpost to national guidance and tools.
An ideal way to support your trainee pharmacists is to encourage them to join the CPPE for Trainee Pharmacists LinkedIn group where they will find CPPE and peer support.
Make sure that the trainee pharmacists that you are working with have access to our resources. More than seven out of ten trainees in England use CPPE, but this means that three out of ten could be missing out.

We recognise that people have different learning needs. Some of our programmes contain core learning while others deliver more complex learning that is only required to support certain roles. We have three categories of learning (1,2,3) and have allocated each programme to an appropriate category.
Core learning. Builds on limited knowledge. Some background reading may be required.
Application of knowledge. Assumes prior learning.
Supporting specialisms. We may not be the provider and will signpost you to other learning providers.
Learning programmes from other providers which complement your learning.
