PSA supports early careers
July 29, 2010
THE Pharmaceutical Society of
Australia has unveiled a new
section on its website, dedicated to
early career pharmacists.
According to the PSA, the new
site feature is designed to allow
early career pharmacists (ECP) the
ability to monitor the Society’s ECP
Working Group Projects,
submissions and activities.
Established last year as a means
to provide support for students,
interns and pharmacists within the
first ten years of their career, the
ECP Working Group’s objectives
include the identification of the
needs of young pharmacists
(professional development, practice
support and advocacy) and to
advise the PSA on how to address
these needs.
“The new area on the website is
a method by which we are letting
ECPs know of the work we are
undertaking and the results we are
achieving,” said the recentlyappointed
Chair of the ECP
Working Group, Justin Lee.
“The ECP Working group is a very
active and forward thinking and
this site is a way of developing twoway
communication between the
group and pharmacists.
“I envisage new ideas to result
from this interaction, as well as the
further development of exiting
projects and programs,” he added.
