CPPE Environmental Sustainability Learning Gateway
CPPE works with members of Pharmacy Declares to ensure that environmental sustainability is embedded within existing and new learning materials. You can access the CPPE environmental sustainability learning gateway here.
Pharmacy undergraduate students can register on the CPPE website and access external resources on their learning gateway pages. Pharmacy students in Northern Ireland can also access this content. At present, the main content of the CPPE website is only open to GPhC registrants, which excludes pharmacists who are registered only with PSNI.
