Upcoming Activities

The American Pharmacists Association (APhA) developed The Pharmacist and Patient-Centered Diabetes Care Certificate Training Program, an educational experience designed to equip pharmacists with the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to provide effective, evidence-based diabetes care. The program provides comprehensive instruction in current diabetes concepts and standards of care and incorporates case studies and hands-on skills training focused on the situations most likely to be encountered—as well as the services most needed—in community and ambulatory care practice settings. Participants will gain experience evaluating and adjusting drug therapy regimens for patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, counseling patients about lifestyle interventions, analyzing and interpreting self-monitoring of blood glucose results, and assessing the overall health status of patients to identify needed monitoring and interventions.

The UC College of Pharmacy has partnered with APhA to offer the APhA Pharmacist & Patient-Centered Diabetes Care Certificate Training Program.  The Pharmacist & Patient-Centered Diabetes Care Certificate Training Program is a combined 23 hours of CPE (15 hours of Self Study and 8 contact hours of CPE).
