UniChem launches scheme for preregistration training

UniChem has launched a preregistration training programme to support independent pharmacists who want to take on a trainee.

Sanjay Pathak, UniChem’s commercial services manager, said: “The purpose of the programme is to provide a one-stop shop, comprehensive and cohesive training and support package for both the trainee and their tutor. The course incorporates regular monthly communications with UniChem’s professional services team and is strongly underpinned with an emphasis on developing competent and confident pharmacists.”

The company says that the course comes as a result of shared knowledge from within Alliance Boots. All training materials, as well as tutor and trainee support, will be centrally provided by UniChem.
