Every registered pharmacist completes revalidation each year as part of staying on the GPhC register. It's about showing you keep your practice up to date and reflect on it.
What you submit each year#
The GPhC framework asks for a set of records each year, typically:
- Four CPD records (at least some planned).
- One reflective account against the standards.
- One peer discussion.
Always check the current requirements and submission window on the GPhC website, as the framework can change.
Make it a habit, not a last-minute task#
- Record your learning as it happens, rather than rushing it at renewal.
- Tag each record against the relevant standard.
- For the peer discussion, arrange a colleague early. (A peer-matching feature is planned for a later release.)
A built-in CPD logger is planned to make this easier.
Where to get proper guidance#
This is a general summary. The GPhC is the definitive source for what you must submit and by when.
