Continuing education just became a lot more accessible. The national launch of rxCertified, the new continuing professional development website offered by the Drug Information and Research Centre (DIRC) and powered by rxBriefCase, means that pharmacists will be able to access online certificate-level programming anywhere, any time.

DIRC developed rxCertified in response to feedback from pharmacists who say they simply do not have time to attend live programs and therefore prefer online education to support their practices.

rxCertified is unique in its commitment to providing accredited, interactive, online education while maximizing the range of topics and offering unparalleled convenience. This innovative, multimedia program allows pharmacists to select one or more modules or an entire certificate program and participate from their home, office or pharmacy. Full slide presentations with audio and other educational links to information and practice tools are included. Pharmacists who register for certificate-level programming also receive printed support materials.

Professional practice topics currently or soon to become available include:

     • change management;
     • diabetes patient care;
     • obesity;
     • women’s health;
     • psychiatric patient care;
     • cardiovascular patient care;
     • asthma patient care;
     • pain and palliative care; and
     • geriatrics.

rxCertified also provides pharmacists with a calendar of various types of online events, highlighting opportunities to meet continuing professional development requirements.

Future offerings on rxCertified will include podcasts and online discussion forums to consult with the experts and share best practices with colleagues.

Programs will be available online for one year, with discounted fees available for OPA members. These accredited, online programs offer exceptional depth of message, credibility and pharmacist satisfaction.

Visit www.rxCertified.ca today to view current programs. It’s available when you are!
