Reflective Practice for Prescribers (Taught)

Please note that this course page includes information for the 2025/26 academic year. Details for 2026/27 entry to this course have not yet been finalised.

The School of Pharmacy offers educational training modules to support and develop registered healthcare professionals in their practice.

This module is aimed at practising healthcare professionals who are working as prescribers (supplementary or independent) who can underpin their workplace-based prescribing practice with a professional portfolio of evidence.

The portfolio will support practitioners to reflect on their experiences by mapping evidence to the Competency Framework for all Prescribers. Practitioners can choose to map their learning to a second national or international professional framework to support their practice and/or revalidation.

Upcoming cohort enrolment options

• As this module does not involve study days with other practitioners, there are usually opportunities to enrol throughout the year.

• Applicants for this module will be enrolled on the overarching CPD programme in Advancing Healthcare Practice, then enrolled on the individual modules.
