Pharmacist-Initiated Therapy Microcredentials Can Boost Your Practice

Attending the Midyear? Visit the ASHP Experience Center (in the Exhibit Hall) or the ASHP Store & Product Showcase (convention center main lobby, level 1), to explore our growing catalog of microcredentials for today’s pharmacy practitioners.

Not familiar with microcredentials? They’re short, stackable activities for learners trying to develop specific pharmacy skills.

ASHP’s microcredentials are intensely focused on skill development to help pharmacists advance their professional goals, build their resumes, and demonstrate competency. Microcredentials provide education and training on an array of pharmacist-initiated services for specific health conditions and signal an advanced level of competency to employers.

Depending on your personal career path and where you live, ASHP’s pharmacist-initiated therapy microcredentials align with state specific point-of-care testing and diagnostic services, including ambulatory respiratory infections, HIV pre- and postexposure prophylaxis, and continuous glucose monitoring. Microcredentials prepare pharmacists to expand their patient care services, and patients benefit when pharmacists are directly involved in their medication-related care.
