The American Pharmacists Association's (APhA) Pharmacy-Based Immunization Delivery certificate training program is based on national educational standards for immunization training from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This practice-based curriculum represents a fusion of science and clinical pharmacy. The program, which emphasizes a health care team approach, seeks to foster the implementation of interventions that will promote disease prevention and public health. The purpose of this certificate training program is to prepare pharmacists with comprehensive knowledge, skills, and resources necessary to provide immunization services to patients across the life span.
The American Pharmacists Association is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education as a provider of continuing pharmacy education. The APhA’s Pharmacy-Based Immunization Delivery certificate training program is approved for a total of 20 contact hours of continuing pharmacy education (CPE) credit (2.0 CEUs).
This is a two-part program which includes self-study component and live seminar component. Successful completion of the self-study component involves passing the self-study assessment with a grade of 70% or higher before attending the live (In-Person or Virtual) seminar session. The live seminar involves attending the full live seminar (In-Person or Live), successfully completing the injection technique assessment, and completing the online assessment and evaluation.
