If you have other ideas, we would love to hear those too! CPS always needs people who have skills in fundraising, marketing, social media, advocacy, technology, partnerships, and anything else you can think of. If you have an area of clinical expertise we can utilize, let us know that too! We always want to hear about new things YOU think we should be involved in. Webinar Co-Coordinator Ready to help CPS fulfill its commitment to education of its members? CPS is proud to offer our member pharmacists and technicians FREE accredited CE through our virtual webinar program. Our current webinar Coordinator, Kandi Icenhower, PharmD, has been doing an excellent job over the past several years to offer our members timely and interesting CE presentations. We are recruiting for a member to help Kandi with this effort. It involves developing ideas on timely topics, contacting and serving as a liaison for the identified speakers, and helping moderate the program. While we typically offer 4-6 CE webinars per year, this would likely entail helping with approx 2-3 webinars per year. This is an easy way to get involved with our educational efforts at CPS, serve in a rewarding role, and work with Kandi - which is a plus!
