Pharmacy Daily | myCPD.org.au

THE Guild is helping pharmacists to comply with the Pharmacy Board of Australia’s (PBA) requirements for mandatory continuing professional development (CPD) as a condition of registration. As part of this national registration requirement, all pharmacists will need to keep records of their continuing professional development. The Guild has developed www.myCPD.org.au – an easy to use website that any pharmacist can use to keep track of their CPD credits. The site will also provide the portal for enrolling in the growing list of e-learning opportunities that the Guild has to offer. There is already a range of free accredited CPD activities that can be undertaken, including: • Good Pharma • Pandemic Preparedness: Infection Control and Business Continuity Planning • Mirixa Those logging on will have the opportunity to select from an existing menu of courses as well as adding in their own details. Stage 2 which is due early in 2011, will provide an extended range of options. The site also includes a calendar of CPD eligible events for each State and Territory. The Guild is now also authorised by the Australian Pharmacy Council to accredit providers of CPD activities for pharmacists that may be used as supporting evidence of continuing competence. Education or training providers who wish to have a CPD activity accredited should email accredit.cpd@guild.org.au or contact Andrew Matthews on 02 6270 1888.
