APhA Career Pathway Evaluation Program for Pharmacy Professionals

To make a sound career decision, you need knowledge about two important subjects - the pharmacy profession and yourself. The APhA Career Pathway Evaluation Program for Pharmacy Professionals is not a “quick fix” that will enable you to reach a career decision by the end of the workshop, nor is it a substitute for your own research. However, it can help you identify the pharmacy career option that is appropriate for you by providing information and guidelines you will need to carry out this process. 

After working through the exercises within this program and participating in a live workshop, you will not only have detailed and useful information about many areas of pharmacy practice, but also will have a clearer understanding of how to choose a career path in pharmacy that is right for you.
 

Program Materials for Participants

Please note that responses to Exercises 1 to 4 are to be completed in writing and Exercises 5 and 6 can be completed using the Online Assessment Tool.

2. The live workshop focuses on a five-step vigilant decision-making process.
