2017 Graduates - Join APhA today and LAUNCH your career with these New Practitioner benefits!

APhA membership helps New Practitioners start their careers off right! APhA has programs and resources in place to help you make a smooth transition from pharmacy school to new practitioner, resident, or postgraduate.
 

Build Your Support System

The APhA New Practitioner Network (NPN) offers webinars, articles in the Transitions e-newsletter, and discussion on our Facebook page about issues you’ll face, including supervisory training and how to lead colleagues who have more experience. This year’s grads will be plugged into a network of experienced recent grads who were just in their shoes and now have the knowledge and experience to pass on. As a member of the NPN, you will immediately inherit a new squad of mentors ready to help guide you.
