Common Registration Assessment 2026 Results Released

The results of the 2026 Common Registration Assessment have now been released.

Pharmacy Forum extends its warmest congratulations to everyone who has successfully passed the assessment. Reaching this milestone reflects the dedication, hard work and commitment required to progress within the profession, and we wish all successful candidates every success in the next stage of their pharmacy careers.

We also recognise that today may be disappointing for those who were not successful on this occasion. Pharmacy Forum would like to remind you that support is available, and you are not alone in navigating your next steps.

Appeals

If you believe there are grounds to challenge your result, you have the right to appeal. Please note that appeals must be submitted within three weeks of the release of your results.

Further information on the appeals process is available here.

Wellbeing and Support

Receiving an unexpected result can be difficult. If you would benefit from additional support, confidential assistance is available through PASS, the pharmacy profession's charitable support service.

Pharmacy Forum encourages anyone who needs advice or wellbeing support during this time to make use of the resources available.

Finally, we remind all early career pharmacists of BRIDGING THE GAP – A Guide for Newly Qualified Pharmacists in Northern Ireland. This guide is designed to practical support those beginning practise in NI.  If you would like to join the Pharmacy Forum Early Career Pharmacist Group, please contact the office for more information.

Whatever your result, today marks an important point in your professional journey. Whether you are preparing to begin practice, planning your next steps, or considering an appeal, Pharmacy Forum remains committed to supporting pharmacists at every stage of their career. We wish all candidates the very best for the future and look forward to welcoming and supporting the next generation of pharmacy professionals.
