The Illinois Council of Health-System Pharmacists is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education as a provider of continuing pharmacy education. To receive your CPE credit, you will need to complete the online evaluation forms at www.CESally.com and then your credit will automatically be reported to CPE Monitor. Additional details on registration and the evaluation process will be available online. Dialing instructions and meeting handouts will be sent to the ICHP Champions two weeks prior to the program.

Target Audience:
Health-System Pharmacists and Pharmacy Technicians

What is CPE Monitor and why do I need a NAPB e-Profile ID number?
CPE Monitor is a national, collaborative effort by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP) and the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE) to provide an electronic system for pharmacists and pharmacy technicians to track their completed continuing pharmacy education (CPE) credits. It will also offer state boards of pharmacy the opportunity to electronically authenticate the CPE units completed by their licensees, rather than requiring pharmacists and technicians to submit their proof of completion statements upon request or for random audits.

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.

This program will be recorded and available for home-study!
