About

NHS England awarded a contract to The University of Manchester for the provision of training and education for pharmacy professionals across England.

The contract was directly awarded to the current provider to ensure uninterrupted delivery, preventing disruptions to patient care and workforce development while ensuring NHSE meets its obligations under key frameworks, including the Community Pharmacy Contractual Framework (CPCF), Network Contract Direct Enhanced Service (DES), Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme (ARRS), and Section 63 of the Health Services and Public Health Act 1968.

As training is a mandatory requirement for registration, failing to provide accessible education would put professionals at risk of losing their registration.

The contract value is AUD 15,666,476.9.
