Dispensing assistant
The GPhC has recognised a number of awarding bodies to deliver the Level 2 knowledge- and competency-based dispensing assistant qualification. We have also accredited a number of distance learning courses which are equivalent to this qualification.
You must be employed in a pharmacy to take the course and it usually takes between six and 12 months to complete.
The GPhC requires that all staff working in a pharmacy are appropriately trained for the role they undertake. Any member of staff involved in the dispensing process must meet the GPhC's minimum training requirements for this type of role and start training within three months of starting in the role.
