Are you thinking about becoming board-certified through the Board of Pharmacy Specialties (BPS) or just starting the process? Get all the important information you need at the next PharmLearn Series: Board Certification 101: A Panel Discussion on Wednesday, March 23, 7 PM via Zoom!

You also gain a deeper understanding of how a board-certification impacts your current scope of practice.
