Register now at www.accp.com/ut and plan to attend Updates in Therapeutics^® 2012, April 27 – May 1, in Reno, Nevada. This meeting will offer two comprehensive 5-day courses to help you prepare for the specialty certification examinations administered by the Board of Pharmacy Specialties (BPS) in Pharmacotherapy and Ambulatory Care Pharmacy. For those not attending the Updates in Therapeutics® courses, coursework in all four ACCP Academy tracks will be offered at a separate, discounted registration rate (see story immediately below).

ACCP’s Ambulatory Care Pharmacy and Pharmacotherapy review courses will guide you through a comprehensive review of the knowledge domains within each specialty. Each course consists of a series of case-based lectures presented by faculty who are nationally recognized content experts. Each lecture puts strong emphasis on the thought processes necessary to manage patient care problems in the specific therapeutic area.

New in 2012, both the Pharmacotherapy and Ambulatory Care Pharmacy review courses will be available for recertification credit. Earn 23.5 contact hours of BCPS recertification credit by attending and successfully completing the associated posttest for the Pharmacotherapy Preparatory Review and Recertification Course, or earn 26 contact hours of BCACP recertification credit by attending and successfully completed the associated posttest for the Ambulatory Care Pharmacy Preparatory Review and Recertification Course.
