New season of inspectors' presentations for preregistration trainees
Each year, the Royal Pharmaceutical Society's professional standards
inspectors organise a series of informal half-day presentations for preregistration
trainees (PDF 35K). Their aim is to explain the inspector's own role
and that of the Society's Fitness to Practise and Legal Affairs Directorate,
so that trainees can gain an understanding of the support available to
pharmacists from those sources.
The sessions are open to all trainees, whatever field of practice they
are in. Trainees may attend the presentation of their own choice. For
most sessions there is no need to reserve a place in advance. There is
no charge for attending the presentations, but any travel costs will
have to be met by the trainee or employer.
The sessions are held at venues across Britain, with a choice of dates
in London and Birmingham. Most of this season’s presentations are
early in the new year, but one session, in Crewe, has already taken place
and two take places in London before the end of this year. Details of
all the presentations are to be sent to preregistration trainees and
tutors in November. The mailing will include information on the precise
location of each venue, with details of railway stations and bus routes
and advice on road travel and parking. For most venues the mailing will
also give a telephone number for further information about the site (eg,
access for the disabled). This information will also be available from
the preregistration training
page of the Society’s website.
Any queries about the presentations should be addressed in writing to
the individual inspectors at the Fitness to Practise and Legal Affairs
Directorate.
