Mark your calendars! On September 25th from 10am - 5pm, AACP will present a fresh and exciting take on the annual Virtual Pharmacy School Fair. This event is designed to provide prospective students with all the information they need to embark on a career in pharmacy. The theme is "Explore Pharmacy: Your Future in Healthcare Starts Here."
New this year, the fair will feature workshops hosted by you – the pharmacy schools - addressing topics that resonate with students and provide valuable insights into pharmacy. Each workshop will dive into a variety of topics including pharmacy profession overviews and career path options; building competitive application packages; and navigating financial aid, scholarships, and student loans.
Interested in hosting a workshop? Visit this form for more information, and to submit your idea for a workshop session. The deadline to submit a workshop is July 17th.

CareerEco also hosts live training every Friday at 1:00 pm EST, for which you can register here.
