No to live CE
 

For the very few preferring live CE, that is an option available as in current pharmacy regulation. But why is it necessary to make live CE a requirement when mass majority are not in favor (for all the right reasons as I have read), and when self-study can provide similar, if not, a better option for continued education? I also don’t believe in an individual’s opinion speaking on behalf for other than herself/himself. If one pharmacist found to have better learning experience with live CE then that’s her/his prerogative, but is it necessary to enforce their preferences on others? No individual should be stating “we pharmacists” while commenting on this section, because I am not part of that “we”. I am not in favor of the live CE.
