Qualified Person Training

Since 1990, our Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) approved QP Training Program has supported quality professionals in becoming Qualified Persons (QPs).

NSF offers a comprehensive series of 12 modules, carefully designed to meet the theoretical training requirements outlined in the UK Joint Professional Bodies' QP Study Guide.
These modules can be attended individually for Continuing Professional Development (CPD), or as part of a full training pathway for professionals aiming to become QPs.

We have built a comprehensive overview and Q&A that answers many of the most frequently asked questions, and we have been asked many questions since we started training QPs in 1990. Get your questions answered, and learn about our free QP seminars to help you decide on your path to becoming a Qualified Person.

We've partnered with The University of Strathclyde to offer a postgraduate qualification in Pharmaceutical Quality & Good Manufacturing Practice. This is available to individuals who are already enrolled in the NSF-Health Sciences Qualified Person Training Programme.
