This week we would like to congratulate the 552 pharmacists who completed the Continuing Competence Program (CCP) Tutorial since the last issue of The Link. You join the 3,098 pharmacists who have already taken the first step to learn about the new Continuing Competence Program. That brings our team total to 3,650. Way to go!
There are only three more steps remaining for you to meet program requirements by May 31, 2015.
For everyone else still at the starting gate, don’t despair—we invite you to take some time over the next few days to familiarize yourself with the program requirements. To access the CCP Portal, visit pharmacists.ab.ca/ccp-portal
In addition to the CCP tutorial, there are a number of resources in the CCP portal, ACP’s website, and in our ACP newsletters that are available to help you to succeed in the program.
Please look for a special edition of the Link coming your way next week focused solely on the Continuing Competence Program.
- Complete the mandatory Continuing Competence Program (CCP) tutorial – Available in the Self-Assessment / Prescribed Activities section of the CCP portal
- Complete learning activities – Complete at least 15 CEUs during the CE cycle (June 1 to May 31) and document each activity on a Learning Record
- Put your learning to use – Implement a minimum of one CEU worth of learning into your practice and document this on an Implementation Record (you only need to complete one record)
- Submit your Learning and Implementation Records to ACP
For assistance, please contact a member of the competence team at competence@abpharmacy.ca, and/or review the FAQ’s on the ACP website.
