New starters: 2021 ABPI Code of Practice training – intermediate online
Our new online ABPI Code of Practice training course gives a great introduction to the Code and focuses on the 5 big Code topics – principles, promotion v non-promotion, meetings and events, using clinical data and digital materials such as websites and social media.
It is ideal if you are new to the ABPI Code of Practice but don’t need training on the whole Code at this stage. Plus you benefit from an expert trainer with the chance to ask questions and work through mock materials.
