Pharmacist Information
To practise as a pharmacist in Saskatchewan, an individual must be registered and licensed with the Saskatchewan College of Pharmacy Professionals (SCPP).
While all applicants must meet the same requirements and qualifications, there are different pathways to licensure, depending on whether an applicant is:
- a graduate not previously licensed,
- a pharmacist licensed in another Canadian jurisdiction,
- an international pharmacy graduate licensed outside of Canada, or
- pharmacist resuming practice.
Please note that you must be registered and licensed as a practising member in good standing along with other conditions as stipulated in section 11 of Part I of SCPP Bylaws, prior to applying to SCPP to become a pharmacy manager.
Prescriptive Authority and Minor Ailments
It is mandatory for all Saskatchewan pharmacists to complete Level I Prescriptive Authority training (including Minor Ailment Basics Level 1 training if practising in a self-care environment) for membership. The training is offered through the Continuing Professional Development for Pharmacy Professionals (CPDPP).
