Welcome to GPhA!
Where do you fit?
Finding Your Practice Setting Academy:
GPhA represents pharmacists from every practice setting, as well as student pharmacists, academicians, and pharmacy technicians. Whether you work at a pharmacy or own it, work for a hospital, health system, chain, or independent, GPhA realizes that each practice setting has different needs. That’s why we have practice academies. Soon after you join GPhA, we’ll assign you to an academy. (If for some reason we get it wrong, you can click here to login and edit your GPhA profile — scroll down to “Academy” and choose yours.)
Be sure to visit your academy’s page (see below) and get in touch to find out how to get involved. How simple is that?
