AACP is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education as a provider of continuing pharmacy education. Pharmacists may earn up to 2.50 hours of CPE credit following the completion of the accredited continuing education activities and corresponding learning assessments and evaluations.
Information on how to obtain continuing education credit
To obtain CPE credit, pharmacists must attend the live accredited continuing education activities, complete the activity assessments with a passing score of 75%, and submit the CE session evaluations via the AACP CE administration platform, Learning Express CE (LECE). An access code will be provided at the conclusion of each accredited continuing education activities. Attendees will need the access code to complete the learning assessments on LECE. Attendees will have 45 days following the Institute to complete the assessments and evaluations. Access to the session activity evaluations and assessments in LECE will be denied after Monday, June 23, 2025, 11:59 pm ET.
CPE credit information will be electronically transmitted to CPE Monitor. Pharmacists should log in to their NABP e-profile to access information about their completed CPE and to print a valid statement of credit if needed.
Note: It is imperative that pharmacist attendees’ NABP e-Profile ID and birthdate (in MM/DD format) are correctly entered in their profile and correspond with their NABP record. Failure to ensure this information is identical in both programs will jeopardize their earning CPE credits.
