This 12-hour course is designed to fulfill the educational requirements for Board-Ordered Continuing Education. The Quiz: Disciplinary Law and Rules course is a minimum of twelve (12) hours in length.

The Course Curriculum outlines each lesson that must be completed. After completing each lesson, you must select the “MARK AS COMPLETED” button at the bottom of the page for the lesson to be recorded as complete.

Once all lessons have been completed, you must complete the Disciplinary Law and Rules quiz and achieve a passing score of 70% or higher. You will have three (3) opportunities to pass the quiz.

The final step is to complete the course evaluation. On the evaluation page, you must answer all required questions, including the Individual Self-Assessment. As part of the self-assessment, the pharmacist must prepare a written report in essay format summarizing the impact of the course, what was learned, and the changes the pharmacist plans to implement in their professional practice as a result of completing the course.

After completing the evaluation, select the “SUBMIT” button before selecting “MARK AS COMPLETED.”

All lessons and required components must be completed in order to receive continuing education credit and the certificate of completion. Once all lessons have been successfully marked as complete, your course completion status and certificate will be available.
