The BOPA Digital SACT Verification Passport is now LIVE!

On Sunday 8th October 2023, Netty Cracknell, Lead Cancer Pharmacist at Ramsay Health Care UK / BOPA Verification Project Lead and Jonathan Knight, CEO and co-founder of Tefogo, launched the BOPA Digital SACT Verification Passport at the 26th BOPA Annual Symposium in Wales.

The concept of the passport allows staff to move between organisations throughout the UK without the need for complete re-training and validation due to the accreditation record being held by an individual rather than the hiring organisation. In a digital format it also has the added benefits of portability, ease of access, auditability and fully assured digital sign-off.
It is available free for BOPA free associates or BOPA paid members to access via the BOPA website.

Thank you everyone who volunteered and helped make this happen.
