Privy Council agrees changes to examination regulations

The Privy Council has approved an amendment to the Royal Pharmaceutical Society’s examination regulations to provide a single point of contact for all applicants to sit the Society’s registration examination (PJ, 23 April, p505). The contact point for all applicants is now the Society’s examinations officer. Previously, UK applicants were advised to deal with the education division and overseas applicants with the overseas registration section.

A further amendment relates to the amount of preregistration training that must be completed before sitting the examination. The amendment is for clarification only and does not reflect a change in procedure.
