Join us for our eighth annual Waterloo Pharmacy CE Saturday

It’s a great opportunity to hear about the latest hot topics in pharmacy practice. This year's event includes a morning of CE talks as well as a Women in Pharmacy Leadership lunch, networking and panel discussion (in person and virtual options available). 

We are pleased to have Katherine Gruenberg as our keynote speaker this year presenting Prescription for a Changing Climate: Advancing Sustainable Practices in the Pharmacy Profession.

Climate change is a significant threat to human health. Our healthcare system, particularly the pharmaceutical lifecycle, exacerbates this issue through emissions and environmental pollution. Educating pharmacists about these impacts is crucial to encourage sustainable practices that lead the way towards a healthier and greener future.
