Temporary Limited Pharmacist Registration of unlicensed residents

Residents Who Are Not Yet Fully Licensed

Temporary limited pharmacist registration

There is often a delay in the licensing of new graduates at the start of the residency year. Residents who are not fully licensed as pharmacists with the BC College of Pharmacists at the start of the residency year need to register as a “Temporary Limited Pharmacist” with the College. Once the resident meets the College requirements for full licensure they can transfer from the “Temporary Limited” category to the fully licensed category. Please note that additional preceptor oversight is required for residents who are not fully licensed. Please see our program’s policy below regarding resident licensure and preceptor oversight.
