If you have developed an educational activity for pharmacists, or are considering developing such a program, you may apply for ACPE accreditation through the University of Colorado School of Pharmacy. Please take the following steps as far in advance as possible and at least 60 days before your educational event:
- Contact the CE Coordinator about your activity, even in the earliest planning phases. As an accredited provider of continuing pharmacy education, we can advise on planning, publicity and design of content to make your program as effective as possible for the pharmacist audience.
- If you are planning a live activity, complete the application for accrediting a Live Activity (PDF). If your activity is a home study, or enduring activity, such as a printed monograph or online program, complete the application for accrediting an Enduring Activity (PDF). Please submit the application to the CE Coordinator by mail or e-mail with all requested information. Fees for accreditation services will be determined upon review of the program application.
- All promotional materials must be approved in advance of distribution. The Office will supply an accreditation statement and ACPE logo to include in publicity once activity must meet ACPE guidelines for promotional materials as shown in the Publicity Checklist (PDF).
- We work closely with the University of Colorado Office of Continuing Medical Education for activities that are jointly accredited for physicians and pharmacists. If you want your program to be accredited for physicians, review the program planning information under Getting Credit.
