This part of the website deals specifically with preregistration training for either MPharm students or Overseas Pharmacists Assessment Programme (OSPAP) postgraduate diploma students wanting to apply to enter preregistration training.

If you are an overseas qualified pharmacist seeking to register in Great Britain, first you must have made an application to the Overseas Registration Division for eligibility to commence an OSPAP and you must have received a positive decision.
