(latest NCVER data)Community pharmacies depend on assistants who have completed SIRCIND001 Work effectively in a community pharmacy to understand their role boundaries, follow procedures and organise daily tasks around customers who may need a pharmacist. It works well as an early unit for RTOs whose learners are new to pharmacy work, and SIRCIND001 training materials give trainers a ready foundation.
Learners develop skills in sourcing information on employment rights and responsibilities, applying anti-discrimination and equal opportunity obligations, following organisational procedures, accepting prescriptions, working within role boundaries and prioritising daily tasks.
Give your team our SIRCIND001 RTO training materials instead of building pharmacy induction content internally. Purchase RTO materials and support trainers with SIRCIND001 learning materials suited to new and existing staff.
