The Interprofessional Clinical Pharmacogenomics Certificate program is an interactive practice-based program designed to equip healthcare professionals with greater readiness, confidence and advocacy for optimizing medication management using pharmacogenomic data. This program will provide learners with a broad knowledge of foundational pharmacogenomic principles and enhance their overall capacity to apply this information across therapeutic areas and practice settings to improve patient care.

This interactive program includes online self-study activities and live webinar activities offered over the course of 8 weeks. The online self-study modules will consist of videos and readings accessed via CloudCME (https://wsu.cloud-cme.com). The live modules conducted via Zoom will include case studies and active large and small group discussion. The entire program will be repeated each Spring and Fall.

Continuing Pharmacy Education (CPE) Requirements:

This activity consists of 8 self-study and 4 live activities. Pharmacists are eligible to receive a total of 16 hours of continuing education credit by completing all 12 activities. Credit will be reported for each activity. 

Participants must participate in the entire activity and complete the evaluation and all required components to claim CPE credit online at the WSU CloudCME® portal (https://wsu.cloud-cme.com). To receive CPE credit for successful completion of each activity within the certificate program, the participant must receive a 70% or better on each of the online self-study exercises (two attempts will be given for each graded exercise), complete an attendance form and activity evaluation form, and actively participate in the live sessions.  

Verification of participation will be reported to the CPE tracking service, CPE Monitor, within 4 weeks after each activity within the certificate program, and will then be accessible to participants at MyCPEMonitor.net. Participants must provide their NABP e-Profile ID and date of birth (MMDD) within their CloudCME® profile for CPE credits to be submitted. To receive credit for successful completion of the Certificate program, the participant must complete all of the activities, a program evaluation form, and receive a 70% or better on the post-test (two attempts will be given).
