The training is to BTEC Level 2 standard required for working within the dispensary. Apprentices must be employed for a minimum of 21 hours in a community pharmacy and will be expected to have or achieve a minimum Grade C in English, Maths and IT on completion of the programme. Pharmacy Services is an all-age apprenticeship with full funding provided to cover training costs; incentive payments of £670 per candidate will be paid to the pharmacy on successful completion of the programme.

Our previous course particpant, Mairaid, also stated:

"I left school with 4 GCSE's. Coming back to education was all new to me. I even had a lot to learn with getting comfortable with using technology. I really enjoyed the course. It was very rewarding"
