UniChem Launches Second Year Of ‘Your Pre-Reg’

UniChem Ltd is pleased to announce the launch of the second year of ‘your pre-reg’, its pre-registration training support package for independent pharmacists. Following a successful first year of the programme, UniChem can confirm it will be offering the package to customers for a second year, at an improved price of £3,750 + VAT per student.

The 2007/2008 course has proved beneficial to independent pharmacists who have widely endorsed the programme. Raymond Hall of Hall’s Pharmacy in Hull commented: “The ‘your pre-reg’ programme has meant that I have not had to worry about going through piles of paperwork, which has left me free to impart my 40 years of experience and knowledge on to my student Ali. As a result I have been able to work towards leaving him in a position where he will be able to run his own business in the future.”

Urvashi Patel of Elora Pharmacy in South Benfleet, Essex, also commented: “The coursework that the students receive is very well structured and ensures that learning takes place, while the calculations received on a monthly basis and at the conferences are of real benefit to the students, and are important in providing essential exam practice. The structure of the whole pre-reg programme is easy to follow and the combination of coursework and conferences work well together, providing a good base for the students to develop.”

The 2008/2009 programme will kick off with a tutor training session that will take place in the final week of July. All training materials, as well as tutor and trainee support, will be centrally provided by UniChem’s dedicated Professional Services team. The package comes as a result of shared knowledge from within Alliance Boots and is designed to provide a comprehensive and fully mapped-out course, which meets the requirements of the RPSGB.

Customers interested in registering for the 2008/2009 programme can contact the UniChem Professional Services team on 0208 974 4048. Closing date for registrations is 21 July 2008.
