Meeting Registration

The online registration system for AMCP meetings is not recognizing me as a member.  

There could be a few reasons why the registration system is not recognizing you as a member.

  1. You started the online registration process, but decided you wanted to join or renew your membership before completing the registration process, i.e., to get the lower member rate. The online registration system, however, does not allow you to change your registration type once you have started the process, and thus will not recognize you as a member. Please contact AMCP Member Services to have your registration type updated.
  2. If you are unsure of the status of your membership, contact AMCP Member Services at 703-684-2600 or email us before you start the process.

Please note, you can join and renew your membership as part of the registration when you start the process.

How do I register for meetings if I do not have an ID number?  

There are two options to locate your AMCP profile in the registration system;

  • AMCP ID and Last Name
  • Email, First Name, Last Name

If you do not have a profile in the database you can select the option to register as a non member. If you still would like your ID number, please email AMCP Member Services. We can also provide a new membership card upon request.

Continuing Pharmacy Education

What is CPE Monitor? 

CPE Monitor service is provided the collaborative efforts of NABP, the  Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE), and ACPE-accredited providers. Learn more information on CPE Monitor, or to create a profile, click here.

Why does AMCP only allow 30 days after a national meeting to complete CPE processing? 

In order to comply with the CPE Monitor 60-day rule, it is AMCP’s policy that CPE requirements for national meetings be completed within 30 days of a live activity. Please complete any post-test and/or evaluations pertaining to the course you are taking before the ACPE expiration date or within 30 days of a live activity date to ensure an on-time credit submission to your CPE Monitor account. No exceptions can be made after the deadline has passed.

What do I do if I provide the wrong e-Profile ID or date of birth when I submitted a claim for CPE credit? 

It is the responsibility of the pharmacist and/or technician to obtain and submit the correct NABP e-Profile ID to AMCP. For more information, please visit NABP here and click on the the "CPE Monitor" tab.

How can I claim my CPE from previous AMCP meetings? 

Deadline to claim credit for an AMCP national meeting is typically within 30 days of a live activity.  If you attended an AMCP national meeting and did not claim credit for the sessions attended in the AMCP Learn CPE submission portal by the posted deadline, you cannot claim CPE credit for those sessions.

I am not an AMCP member. Can I still access the AMCP Learn? How do I set up an account on the AMCP Learn? 

Yes, you can access the AMCP Learn by creating a free online account. You can find instructions on how to setup an account within the AMCP Learn system by clicking here.

What is the difference between a statement of completion and a statement of credit? 

Official Statements of Credit must be obtained from CPE Monitor. This is the official record of credits earned from CPE-activities accepted by NABP.  However, AMCP will provide a Certificate of Completion to participants of an educational activity upon successful completion. This certificate is NOT accepted as an official record by NABP.

Where can I access my official statement of credit? 

Official Statements of Credit must be obtained from CPE Monitor. Participants may print a copy of their statement from their NABP e-Profile account. CE provider-generated certificates will no longer be valid.
