Information on training events and resources available for you and your team
Online pharmacy training events set up to provide community pharmacies high quality online training to meet the needs of the whole pharmacy.
Community Pharmacy South Central has invested in a series of short online training modules to help support Health Promotion Activities. Each module lasts up to a maximum of 15 minutes, so it's quick and easy to complete each month.
The modules are aimed at Counter Staff and Health Champions, but may be enjoyed by the whole team.
The first available modules were on:
The modules play on PCs, Tablets and Smartphones and are available to watch whether you are in the pharmacy or at home. This gives the whole team more opportunities to stay up to date with health promotion knowledge as well as providing campaign ideas for your Healthy Living Information zone.
Access to the modules is very easy by completing an online registration the first time you participate. Once done you will be notified directly with details of the next available on-line training.

CPSC is pleased to confirm that it will continue to fund the VirtualOutcomes monthly training resources for all community pharmacies registered within Southampton, Hampshire, Isle of Wight and Portsmouth. Usage continues to grow, as more and more pharmacies are giving the modules a try, finding them easy to use, most useful in up-skilling their teams and providing vital links to support the organised national health campaigns and other key activities in the year.
VirtualOutcomes has now confirmed their planned programme for 2019, which includes the six Public Health campaigns. For the full programme please see the following linked flyer:
