Description

HEIW is seeking to commission delivery of a training programme for post-registration foundation pharmacists in Wales. The programme is non- mandated and will provide a career pathway and required transition for emerging new registrants from September 2022 to July 2026 to achieve IP status alongside gaining an RPS credential. This credential will offer recognition of competence at an early career stage, for all employers irrespective of sector of practice and facilitating the pathway to RPS advanced practice. The programme delivered will be required to meet the learning outcomes of the RPS post-registration foundation pharmacist curriculum. The final curriculum will be published in August 2021. The RPS curriculum supports the transition to the revised GPhC standards for IETP over the next 5 years. As the implementation of these educational reforms progress, it is anticipated that elements of the clinical content of this curriculum, mainly prescribing, will be phased into the initial education and training period i.e. years 1-5. The clinical content within the post-registration foundation phase will therefore change to support new prescribers develop their confidence, competence and extend their scope of practice and the changes will need to be accommodated within the programme commissioned by HEIW as it transitions towards 2026.
