How we help

Support with learning, gap analysis review of business requirements.

01

What is a DPP?

A Designated Prescribing Practitioner is an experienced prescriber who supervises, supports and assesses a trainee prescriber in practice. The DPP signs off the period of learning in practice that sits alongside the academic qualification.

02

Who it's for

Clinicians and pharmacists, and other allied health professionals, who are working towards an independent prescribing qualification and need a designated prescribing practitioner and structured support.

03

How the programme works

Students enrol on any number of approved postgraduate academic providers, at the discretion of the applicant. The DPP or clinical supervisor then provides the practice-based element of the qualification.

04

What's included

Clinical supervision, education and support; structured training opportunities; supervised shadowing hours; and access to real-world experience with patients.

05

Time commitment

The time commitment is tailored to the applicant and depends on the length of the chosen course. We agree this with you after an initial enquiry.

06

Getting started

Get in touch with the qualification you intend to take, or that you are considering, and we will scope the support around it.
