Target Audience: This application-based activity was developed for Health-System Pharmacists and Pharmacy Technicians.
NEW - PTCB now requires CPhTs to earn only pharmacy technician-specific (‘T-specific’) credit to qualify for recertification.
However, any Pharmacist or P-specific credit earned by technicians in 2014 will still be accepted for those recertifying in 2015. As of January 1, 2015, ALL CPE credit earned must be T-specific. In addition, PTCB will reduce 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.
CPE Monitor: When registering for this program, you will be required to provide your NABP e-Provile ID # and Birthday.
