Continuing Professional Development in Practice: A Primer from Pharmacy Educators

Monday, July 22, 2024
3:30 PM - 4:30 PM East Coast USA Time
Location: Hynes 207
CE: 1.00

Learning Objectives:

At the completion of this activity, participants will be able to:
  • Define the process and the components of the Continuing Professional Development (CPD) cycle.
  • Describe strategies to implement CPD in different settings (i.e., colleges and schools of pharmacy, healthcare systems).
  • Design a CPD program for a cohort of pharmacy learners relevant to you (i.e., students, technicians, pharmacists, preceptors, faculty, etc.)
Continuing Professional Development (CPD) is a self-directed, ongoing, systematic and outcomes focused approach to lifelong learning that is applied into practice. In this session, pharmacy educators will explore how CPD can be incorporated into different settings to encourage lifelong learning and facilitate the planning and identification of meaningful educational and development opportunities. Participants will hear from a panel of pharmacy educators who used a CPD process to develop student pharmacists and pharmacists in the workforce.
