Pre-reg training talks with inspectors

The General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) is the independent pharmacy regulator, and we are seeking to work more closely with registrants to raise awareness of our role and the breadth of our work. This includes our approach to setting and seeking compliance with our standards and how our fitness to practise processes work.

Our engagement programme includes taking opportunities to talk to pre-registration trainees and their tutors and to encourage questions and discussion. They are open to all trainees and tutors, and are a great opportunity to network and share ideas.  The format is quite informal and there is no charge for attending. 

At some of the events, you do need to book in advance , see below for further details.
