Pharmacy Apprenticeships 

Apprenticeships in 6 simple terms 

An apprenticeship combines practical training in a job with study 
Apprentices are employed and receive a salary 
Apprentices are entitled to a minimum of 20% ‘off the job’ training time as part of their job 
If not already achieved, apprentices will undertake Maths and English qualifications 
A qualification taken during an apprenticeship is equal to the same qualification taken elsewhere 
Depending on the apprenticeship, upon successful completion, apprentices may be eligible to apply for professional registration 

Apprenticeship standards in pharmacy 

Career progression is not linear. You can step in or out at any point depending on your experience and career goals. You must check that you meet the entry requirements for the apprenticeship you select.
