In what time frame must continuing education records be submitted to the BOP by a provider?

Continuing education records must be submitted to the Board of Pharmacy (BOP) by a provider 45 days prior to the program. This requirement ensures that the board has ample time to review and approve the educational activities before they are conducted, promoting high standards in continuing education and ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements. Timely submission allows for thorough evaluation of the curriculum, instructors, and the overall structure of the program, which helps maintain the quality and accountability of continuing education offerings for pharmacists.

By mandating this specific timeframe, the BOP can efficiently manage and oversee the continuing education processes, ensuring that all accredited providers meet the necessary standards.
