Learning Objectives:

At the completion of this activity, participants will be able to:
  • Review the importance of introducing the CPD Process to student pharmacists early and practicing often in the pre-APPE pharmacy degree program.
  • Identify various curricular components and strategies in which CPD exercises could be developed for insertion into the pre-APPE curriculum and co-curriculum.
  • Devise authentic learning activities to implement in the pre-APPE curriculum to engage students in the CPD process.
This session will showcase three strategies for incorporating Continuing Professional Development (CPD) into pre-APPE programming. A collaborative presentation of three faculty members from different colleges will discuss how each incorporated CPD into areas of didactic coursework career planning, advising, co-curriculum and professional development portfolios. Participants will discuss strategies and apply what they have learned through small group discussion, polling and guided reflection via a structured worksheet to determine next steps for consideration at their respective institutions.
