The Diploma in Pharmaceutical Medicine (DPM) training programme has been designed by FPM to prepare candidates for the Certificate in Pharmaceutical Medicine (CPM) and Diploma in Pharmaceutical Medicine (DPM) exams.

The programme is mapped to the PharmaTrain syllabus, on which the CPM and DPM exams are based, aiming to improve knowledge across six broad topic areas, with three additional exam technique courses that explore technique and question practice across the three types of papers that feature in the CPM and DPM exams.

The 2024 training programme is now closed. Please see DPM Training 2025.

This module will include the following topics:

  • develop your confidence to sit the exam
  • benefit from a comprehensive range of learning materials that will aid you in your professional development
