2019 Code of Practice
The current version of the Code of Practice is 2019.
The PMCPA have announced their intention to release an updated ABPI Code of Practice for the Pharmaceutical Industry for 2021. We expect that this will be published in early 2021 and come into effect from July 2021.
During this transition period, all Unit 1 Questions on the Code of Practice will be compatible with
both the 2019 and 2021 published versions.
During this period, it should not matter whether candidates have read the 2019 or 2021 version, all questions will be answerable from either version.
From 01 July 2021, some questions will only be answerable from the 2021 Code of Practice
on the new provisions of the 2021 Code.The PDF of the current version of the
Code of Practice and a PowerPoint summary of the changes from the previous version can be downloaded from the PMCPA website
here. An interactive version of the 2019 Code is available
here. We will update these links as more information, and the 2021 Code, becomes available.
