Do I need to send my Set E Workbook for the Pharmacy Assistant Course for external marking once completed?2022-08-24T15:52:46+01:00

No, you don’t have to send it away to be marked. The Set E workbook is marked by your course Supervisor. It should be marked and passed before you sit the Set E MCQ assessment. Ensure that once you have completed the workbook you hand it straight away to your supervisor who will mark it as soon as possible.

We have registered someone onto the course but they have since left. Can I transfer the course to another member of staff?2022-08-24T15:55:20+01:00

This may be possible if:

  • the student has not yet registered onto the assessment portal
  • the request is made within 6 months of the initial enrolment, and
  • all the training materials are unused and intact so can be passed on to another member of staff.

Please call the CIG helpline for help. You will need to provide:

  1. Name/email/employee number of member of staff who has left
  2. Name/email/employee number of new candidate and email address
  3. New candidate date of birth and ethnicity, plus whether the candidate is registered disabled
  4. Pharmacy name and address, postcode, phone number and email (if different)
  5. Supervisor name/GPhC number (if different)
