Declaration

The declaration must be signed by the point of contact (e.g. medical director, director of manager of human resources or training department or administrator/manager responsible for managing the training site's delivery of the PMST programme).
I declare on behalf of my organisation that we have decided to relinquish our status as a training site for the PMST programme in full knowledge that:
- FPM will ask the GMC to remove us from its list of training sites for the PMST programme;
- we must inform pharmaceutical physicians employed by us and who want to undertake PMST that they must postpone submitting a PMST application until we become a training site;
- we must re-apply to FPM to become a training site before we can support a pharmaceutical physician employed by us to undertake PMST; and
- we may have to participate in an assessment process to determine our suitability to become a training site before FPM decides to apply to the GMC to approve us as a training site.
