Educational Learning Outcome
Incorporate advances in psychopharmacology into the full scope of psychiatric-mental health nursing practice for the care of persons across the lifespan.
Learn Live or On Demand
You have the option to attend and earn contact hours for the sessions during the conference or on demand afterwards – or a mix of both!
Recordings of sessions will be available in the APNA eLearning Center 2-3 months after the conference. Access to session recordings is included in your registration. If a particular session was missed during the live conference, attendees will then be able to come back to their account on the APNA eLearning Center to view the session, then complete the post test and evaluation in order to generate a contact hours certificate.
Online Evaluations & Contact Hours Certificate
Evaluations for the APNA Annual Clinical Psychopharmacology Institute must be completed online in order to earn contact hours.
Evaluation Deadline: June 24, 2024
You’ll be able to complete evaluations for sessions you attend live in real-time as you go, at the end of the day, or after the conference until June 24, 2024. You can jot down your responses as you attend sessions, then log in at your convenience to complete the evaluations online. Once you finish completing evaluations for the sessions you’ve attended, you’ll then complete the Overall Evaluation, which will unlock your NCPD Contact Hours Certificate. Press “Post Final Credits & Create Certificate”, and your Certificate will be pre-populated with your information and contact hours earned. You can have it emailed to your inbox, save a pdf version to your computer, or print it (printers will not be available at the on-site evaluations stations).
