The excitement is palpable at APhA headquarters as we get ready to send the shipment—all of the materials we need for education sessions, the bookstore, the booths, and so on—to Baltimore for APhA2016 from March 4 to 7!

Preregistered attendees can expedite registration by spending 5 minutes on the e-mail with the subject line, “APhA2016 Annual Meeting—Badge Confirmation & Express Pass.” Most received this on Friday. This is NEW THIS YEAR.

You can confirm that your name badge is correct and make any necessary changes. The e-mail also includes an Express Pass QR Code. When you arrive at the registration area, simply scan your Express Pass QR Code from your mobile device or printed copy, or type in your name information. Proceed to the badge holder/ribbon desk and present your printed badge to receive your badge holder and supplies.

If you haven’t registered yet for APhA2016, no problem! It’s not too late. You can register online at www.aphameeting.org.

Pharmacists from all over the country in diverse practice settings come to share, learn, and network. Although we hope to see you there, we know not everyone can make it.  So we’re serving the meeting to you at home. Meeting highlights will be available through Video on Demand, which includes 12 of our most popular education sessions from APhA2016, equaling 24 hours of continuing pharmacy education credits. These sessions will be video recorded and available for home study credit. For more information about Video on Demand, visit www.aphameeting.org.   

Come join me in Baltimore. Have your battery recharged with networking events, excitement, and new opportunities. I guarantee you’ll find your experience at APhA2016 warm and welcoming!
