CPNP Psychiatric Pharmacotherapy Review Course-New for 2014!

Designed for the dual purpose of BCPP examination preparation and BCPP recertification, the Psychiatric Pharmacotherapy Review Course has become increasingly valued as a quality reference source. Released February 3, this course has many new features for 2014:

  • Given its value as a reference source and as an educational program for healthcare professionals beyond pharmacy, this course has been retitled to Psychiatric Pharmacotherapy Review Course from the previous title of BCPP Examination Review and Recertification Course.
  • ACCME credit is now available for the course.
  • Modules from the course are available for individual sale in CPNP University (search on Psychiatric Pharmacotherapy Review Course). Those accessing the course for Recertification credit still purchase the course as the full 20 hour course at https://aapp.org/bcpp/recertification/registration.

Eighty-nine percent of successful BCPP candidates in the fall of 2013 purchased the Review Course as their primary study tool. Here is just a sampling of their comments regarding the value of the Review Course:

“Overall I was very pleased with the review course. It does not require much in the way of improvement. It already is, in its current format, a powerful aid in preparing pharmacists for the BCPP exam.”

“The book was the only resource I used. It was very thorough and allowed me to learn lots of information in a structured and easy to understand way.”
