National Association of Boards of Pharmacy - CPE Monitor Service

Provided through the collaborative efforts of the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP), the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and ACPE-accredited providers, the CPE Monitor Service allows you to electronically keep track of continuing pharmacy education (CPE) credits from ACPE-accredited providers. ACPE-accredited providers, like ACCP, are responsible for transmitting this information to NABP to be stored in the CPE Monitor system. Statements of credit will be available at CPE Monitor, nabp.pharmacy/cpe-monitor-service/, within 2–3 business days after completion of this activity. For more information on CPE Monitor please visit nabp.pharmacy/cpe-monitor-service/.

To transfer these credits to CPE Monitor on your behalf your NABP e-Profile ID Number and date of birth must be listed on your ACCP account. To verify or update this information in your ACCP account, visit Licensure/Certification. Be sure to save your changes at the bottom of the page.

Some international pharmacists do not use the CPE Monitor service. To verify or update this information in your ACCP account, visit Licensure/Certification. Check the box "I am an international pharmacist or I am not licensed to practice in the United States, and do not have an NABP e-Profile ID." Be sure to save your changes at the bottom of the page.

    Recertification Credit

Recertification credits for this activity will not be awarded until September 2022, due to the timing of the cut score study.

To be eligible to earn recertification credit, participants must purchase the 2022 Updates Plus in Pediatric Pharmacy Webinar Recording and complete, submit and pass a Web-based posttest by June 22, 2023. Posttests may not be submitted more than one time. Partial credit is not available for this activity.

Posttests submitted before the testing deadline that meet or exceed the passing point will earn recertification credit. Note that the passing point for this product will be established in September 2022, based on analysis of the test items by content experts. Once the passing point is known, recertification credits will be forwarded to BPS for those who passed the posttest and the credits will be assigned as of the date of posttest submission.

Questions regarding the number of hours required for recertification should be directed to BPS at (202) 946-5026 or www.bpsweb.org. For statements of recertification credit, visit www.bpsweb.org.

All participants must have a Board of Pharmacy Specialties (BPS) board certification credential number, BPS ID Number, and a BPS expiration date on file with ACCP for reporting purposes.
