Training for Furnishing HIV Preexposure and Postexposure Prophylaxis (PrEP/PEP)

The Board of Pharmacy has created a free training webinar pharmacists may complete to independently initiate and furnish HIV pre-exposure and post-exposure prophylaxis, pursuant to California Code of Regulations, title 16, section 1747. Pharmacists who successfully complete the training also will receive 1.5 hours of continuing education (CE) credit.

The webinar is about 90 minutes in length, including a training presentation followed by an assessment section with 10 multiple-choice questions. In addition, the presenter has provided a list of abbreviations used in the webinar training program. Participants must view the entire 90-minute webinar and obtain a passing score on the assessment to receive a certificate of successful completion and CE credit.

Note: Please allow enough time to complete the entire training program in one session to receive credit for viewing the entire webinar. Because of technical limitations, credit cannot be given for viewing the entire 90-minute training program in multiple discrete sections.

Pursuant to CCR section 1747(a)(2), participants must obtain a passing score of 70 percent or higher to receive a certificate of successful completion of the training program. Participants who do not obtain a passing score will not receive a certificate of completion nor CE credit.
