Applicants must be in good standing with subscription fees for the current year fully paid.
Members of FPM (MFPM) are eligible to apply for Ordinary Fellowship by one of two routes:
Membership (MFPM) for eight years or more: If you have held Membership (MFPM) for eight years or more, you are invited to apply for Fellowship. The eight years is calculated from the date you were awarded Membership to the end of May 2020 when the Fellowship and Awards Committee meets, so those awarded Membership on, or before, 31 May 2012. However, if you have any gaps in your Membership you will not become eligible to apply until the equivalent of eight full years has been fulfilled.
Members (MFPM) who have been of the GMC Specialist Register for Pharmaceutical Medicine for at least two years: If you are a Member (MFPM) and have been on the GMC Specialist Register for Pharmaceutical Medicine either through a CCT (Certificate of Completion of Training) or CESR (Certificate of Eligibility for Specialist Register) for at least two years, you are invited to apply for Fellowship. The two years is calculated from the date of registration on the GMC Specialist Register to the end of May 2020 when the Fellowship and Awards Committee meets, so a registration date on, or before, 31 May 2018.
Notes:
The Fellowship and Awards Committee will fully and objectively assess each completed application; no one criterion outweighs the others in the Committee’s consideration of the application. The Fellowship and Awards Committee will use its discretion in the election of new Ordinary Fellows with regards to the reputation and public perception of FPM. A Member (MFPM) will not be elected to Ordinary Fellowship if they have any current conditions, undertakings or warnings attached to their medical registration. If a potential applicant believes that special circumstances exist these should be discussed with the President or Registrar.
