Target Audience: This knowledge-based activity was developed for Health-System Pharmacists and Pharmacy Technicians.
PTCB requires CPhTs to submit 20 hours of pharmacy technician-specific (‘T-specific’) continuing pharmacy education (CPE) to qualify for recertification. Pharmacy technicians will no long be able to use Pharmacist only or P-specific CPE. In addition, PTCB reduced the number of allowable CPE hours earned through in-service training from 10 to 5. Please advise all pharmacy technicians at your site of this change. As an ACPE accredited provider, ICHP will continue to include Technician specific programming in most if not all of our CPE programming.
CPE Monitor: When registering for this program, you will be required to provide your NABP eProfile ID# and Birthday (MMDD) when registering for this meeting. This information will be required by any participants seeking CPE credit.
