Did you know the 2025/26 PCN DES still includes funding that can support Leadership & Management training?
Although the payment is now folded into your core PCN Funding, it can still be used to invest in essential
training — including courses with Dispex. Whether you apply as an individual practice or across your PCN,
this is a great opportunity to boost your dispensary team’s skills. [Click here to view the full DES contract]
What does this mean for you?
Your PCN funding can still be used to access training that supports leadership and management in
dispensary operations. That includes:
- Onsite profitability management reviews
- Dispensary Manager Mentorship Programme (1:1 Teams Workshops)
- Onsite Dispensary Management training
How to Unlock Your Training in 5 Simple Steps:
- Identify a Need- If your team would benefit from leadership or management support, we’re here to help.
- Choose a Course- Pick from our tailored training options listed above.
- Speak to Your PCN Lead- Share your chosen course(s), our email address (training@dispex.net) and
[use this TEMPLATE LETTER] to formally request PCN funding. Please note: Dispex is not responsible for
NHS England funding decisions. - Get Approval- Once approved, let us know. We can either invoice your PCN directly, or invoice your
practice if you’d prefer to claim the funding yourself. - Training Confirmation-Dispex will confirm your training once arranged. Every PCN handles this
differently — so it’s worth checking any specific criteria they may have.
Don’t Lose Your Allocation — Book by 31st March 2026!
Funds not used by the end of the financial year will be lost. However, as long as we invoice your PCN
before 31st March 2026, your training can still take place afterwards.
