Careers
Upon successful completion, you will be awarded a Practice Certificate in Independent Prescribing and be eligible for annotation on the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) register as an independent prescriber.
University of Leicester 's Pharmacist Independent Prescribing is delivered using predominantly distance learning approaches so is open to registered pharmacists from across England. The two face-to-face study days will be delivered at multiple locations to provide regional coverage and therefore minimise travel for trainee prescribers.
