Target Audience

BCPPs desiring an evidence-based, in-depth review of contemporary issues in psychiatric pharmacy at the specialist level are the intended audience of this recertification activity. This activity is designed for BCPPs who are auditory and visual learners and/or who learn best from hands-on-learning and dialoguing with specialist faculty and colleagues.

Content

The Clinical Application Series is an application-based continuing pharmacy education (CPE) activity designed to advance the knowledge and improve competency of participants through the delivery of evidence-based presentations. The interactive presentations are delivered live over two days at the AAPP Annual Meeting and provide knowledge and tools to improve the comprehensive care of patients with mental health disorders.

An application-based CPE activity requires that participants apply the information learned. In an application-based CPE activity, the learning objectives are written at a higher level in order to assess the learner's ability to use the information that is learned, at the expected level of practice of Board Certified Psychiatric Pharmacists. The examination for this product often features cases requiring that the participant apply the principles learned through the presentations. 
 
The Clinical Application Series includes:
  • Online access to the recorded speakers' audio presentations synchronized with their slide presentations (presented live at AAPP 2025 on April 27 and April 28 in Salt Lake City, UT).
  • For pharmacists, 5 hours of ACPE credit and 5 hours of BCPP Recertification credit achieved by successfully completing the online AAPP recertification examination.
  • Access to the AAPP testing center with exam submission due on or before October 27, 2025.

Consider making these presentations part of your BPS Continuing Professional Development plan! Please refer to the BPS Psychiatric Pharmacy Content Outline to see how this activity may align.
