CPE Monitor

CPE Monitor is a national, collaborative effort by NABP and the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE) to provide an electronic system for pharmacists and pharmacy technicians to track their completed continuing pharmacy education (CPE) credits. It will also offer state boards of pharmacy the opportunity to electronically authenticate the CPE units completed by their licensees, rather than requiring pharmacists and technicians to submit their proof of completion statements upon request or for random audits. This initiative will streamline processes for pharmacy practitioners to ensure they are maintaining professional competency requirements. CPE Monitor is expected to save pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, state boards of pharmacy, and CPE providers time and money.

To prepare for the new process, pharmacists and technicians should obtain their NABP e-Profile ID now at www.MyCPEMonitor.net to ensure their e-Profile is properly setup. Beginning in 2012, the e-Profile ID will be required to receive credit for anyCPE activities taken from ACPE-accredited providers. For additional information about CPE Monitor, please visit the NABP web site at www.MyCPEMonitor.net.
