There are seven days remaining to register for the Pharmacy Assistant National Conference (PA Conference) and secure a $65 saving.
The PA Conference is an annual event held on 28-29 October in Brisbane that offers a two-day educational program, trade exhibition, networking opportunities and exciting social functions, as well as the announcement of the 2022 Pharmacy Assistant of the Year award winner.
The PA Conference is a unique opportunity for community pharmacies to recognise pharmacy assistants’ increased workload and capacity over the past two years of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and reward them with professional development and networking opportunities.
After two years postponement due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this year’s program boasts:
- a pre-conference workshop on pain management;
- an industry update from Professor Trent Twomey, The Pharmacy Guild of Australia National President;
- a motivational experience from Olympic Speed Skater, Steven Bradbury; and
- an entertaining ‘black and white’ themed Conference Dinner.
The staff shortages currently experienced across community pharmacies have not gone unnoticed with a range of registration packages available to suit schedules and capacity.
Pharmacy assistants have the selection of full registration, day registration, afternoon sessions only or coupled with the evening’s social program and standalone tickets to the Welcome Reception or Conference Dinner.
Pharmacies which register two or more staff will also be rewarded with a free APP2023 registration valued at over $1,000. This is an amazing opportunity for pharmacy staff to experience two of the industry’s peak events for a reduced cost.
