Thought it would be interesting to see what post graduate qualifications everyone has done, certificate/diploma/Msc etc?

A BA from the OU.
Repeat Dispensing, MUR, Chlamydia testing (Bradford).
A whole load of pointless certificates (prescribing advice - influencing doctors - type of thing and assorted CPD)
One and a half of letters in the PJ.
A couple of articles for the Dispensing Doctors Association magazine.

MA from Anglia Ruskin Univ.

Like others, loads of course certificates.

Soon I'll "only" be able to quote the MA! Thanks to the petty-minded people who drafted the GPhC rules.

MA in a branch of applied psychology
Postgrad diploma in the psychology of human potential (ask at your peril)
Master Practitioner of NLP
few other bits and pieces.

(Nothing postgrad applied to pharmacy, except the usual CPD)

Very interesting. I presume you still work in pharmacy. Did those NLP skills help with counselling and patient compliance or did you use them for dating

I've always been able to "connect" with patients, that came first: actually I found the NLP skills helped more to break rapport with patients who wouldn't stop talking, when I wanted to get on.

Dating? - "Nlp' ers influence with integrity"

I managed to do the old style Certificate and Diploma in Pharmacy Practice. The new style three year diploma sounds nasty.

Three years on top of working full-time does sound nasty.

In the 80's I got MCPP (then by exam & at least two years work) and late in the 90's an MA (three years) while working full time.

And I still had holidays, family life etc, although I must admit my children were by the 80's pretty well grown up and living their own lives.

It just depends on how you organise your life!
