Live CE
 

If live CE proposal is approved, please be sure it continues to extend to either ACPE and CME.  CME is as valuable of a resource, possibly more, than ACPE.    My personal opinion, the changing pharmacist landscape makes this proposal more of a financial burden than an educational benefit.  Local pharmacist organizations, other than their state-wide meetings, rarely provide ACPE credit due to these meetings being sponsored by pharmaceutical manufacturers.  Meeting registration cost, accomodations, meals, and time off from work (likely vacation time) makes this an overly burdensome requirement.
