PDAP Mobile

To ensure that pharmacists and pharmacy technicians provide optimal patient care throughout their careers as healthcare professionals, they must maintain their competency through ongoing professional development activities as determined by a Quality Assurance Program.

In British Columbia, this program is called the Professional Development and Assessment Program (PDAP). As determined by legislation [HPA Bylaw 55(2)], PDAP consists of a Continuing Education (CE) component which utilizes the CE-Plus tool.

The CE-Plus tool requires pharmacists and pharmacy technicians to submit a minimum of 15 hours of professional development (a minimum of 5 hours must be accredited learning) documented on a minimum of 6 Learning Records every year.

The College of Pharmacists of British Columbia created PDAP Mobile to provide pharmacists and pharmacy technicians with an accessible and convenient application where they can create, edit and submit their CE-Plus requirements to the College on a mobile device. More resources are available at www.bcpharmacists.org/pdapmobile

Pharmacists and pharmacist technicians can also submit their annual CE-Plus requirements on the PDAP Portal which is available on https://eservices.bcpharmacists.org/web/cpbc.

NOTE: The PDAP Mobile app is free to download and use for registrants of the College of Pharmacists of British Columbia only. Publisher: www.bcpharmacists.org
