About The Examination
Why Should You Take the OSPAP Course Exam?
If your dream is to practice as a registered pharmacist in the UK, then the first step is OSPAP (Overseas Pharmacists Assessment Programme) which is a postgraduate diploma course
Many candidates feel that OSPAP is an exam, which is quite opposite; It is a careful designed course for international pharmacists who are qualified outside the European Economic Zone (EEA) and want to practice in United Kingdom.
Completing the OSPAP is a mandatory step before you can sit for the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) registration assessment, which is the final requirement
to become a licensed pharmacist in the UK.
