Endorsements
Endorsement is free of charge and supports and recognises important work from other organisations. The Royal College of Pharmacy (RCPharm) endorsement grants permission to organisations to use our endorsement on specific resources, events or conferences that contribute to patient care.
We do not endorse materials or events from commercial organisations including commercial training companies and other profit-making organisations.
How to apply for an endorsement
Please check whether your resources may be eligible to be endorsed by the RCPharm by answering the following two questions for an instant response:
1. Is the resource for commercial purposes? Yes/No
2. Is your resource for educational purposes (i.e. eLearning module or CPD)? Yes/No.
If you answered ‘yes’ to either of the above questions, then unfortunately, we cannot endorse any commercial/educational resources.
If you answered ‘no’ to the above questions, then your resource may be eligible to be endorsed by us.
If your resource is eligible, please apply with our Word document form. For more comprehensive criteria on what resources we endorse, check out our endorsement guide.
