New Meeting Template for the 2017 ACCP Annual Meeting

Join us October 7–10, in Phoenix, Arizona, for the 2017 ACCP Annual Meeting. Beginning in 2017, the American College of Clinical Pharmacy (ACCP) will debut a new Annual Meeting template, reconfigured to better meet the needs of the College’s diverse membership. The first full day of programming will begin Saturday, October 7, and the conference will conclude one day earlier, Tuesday, October 10.

The new meeting template offers members the quality, cutting-edge clinical education programming that ACCP has always consistently delivered. This year’s educational sessions will address a variety of issues facing the clinical pharmacy profession, including the opioid epidemic, antibiotic resistance, mobile health technology in the treatment of the modern-day patient, and the long-term effects of newer agents for diabetes. ACCP will also continue to offer specialized clinical programming, including Practice and Research Network (PRN) focus sessions, Academy programming, advocacy initiatives, and scientific poster sessions. Student participants can learn how to “Emerge from the Crowd” as residency candidates, and residents and fellows will find programming designed to meet their specific needs as they transition into new practitioners.

New this year, ACCP professional recruitment opportunities will be expanded to include a forum for new practitioners. The newly configured Professional Placement Forum will offer a separate recruitment session for new practitioners as well as sessions dedicated to members seeking residency or fellowship training. Participants will be able to meet face-to-face with employers offering a variety of postgraduate training and entry-level positions.

Practitioners seeking Board of Pharmacy Specialties recertification credit will have ample opportunity to earn recertification credit during the Annual Meeting, with the Clinical Reasoning Series in Ambulatory Care, Critical Care, and Pharmacotherapy or the BCOP Clinical Sessions cosponsored by ACCP and the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists.

Registration for the 2017 ACCP Annual Meeting will open June 1. Early-bird registration rates will be available until September 1. Please visit www.accp.com after June 1 for complete Annual Meeting information.
