What is it? On-line modules with multiple-choice quizzes?
I've never heard of it and I'm guessing not many people have. Maybe that's why no one has responded?

Please explain to me the advantages of having MTM certification? That's what a PharmD is for.
This is the program I am referring to: http://www.powerpak.com/mtm/
THanks! I looked over the outline and it looks pretty solid and the faculty also looks decent. However, I am wondering the certificate they give you: does it say Power Pak on it? Cause if it does, I'd image it wouldn't look as good as the one from AphA.
I can't find any information regarding the setup of this program (I guess I have to register in order to do so?) Is it entirely online? THe AphA is a live seminar and I don't see that they cover again the systemic disease states like the PowerPak does and I'd really like to have this review again. What is the quality of the material from this PowerPak, you know? I wonder if it's just basic or advanced with clinical pearls we can use. Thanks again for the reply
I'm not sure regarding the information provided by powerpak. But when a recruiter or employer look at your resume, I'm sure it won't make much difference where you received the certification but more so that you have it.

No I don't either, just saw it on the website.
FOUND A VOUCHER: based on Washington State Pharmacy Assoc. or something. Code is:
WSPA-KLGQU get's it down from $80 to $65 and it worked for me today (8/28/17)

If we have our pharmD why do we need to get all these "certifications"? Someone in another thread asked about a "smoking cessation" certificate. That sounds like something that means less than 1 individual class in pharmacy school.

Either way you get some CE out of it.

Other than the CE, and the invaluable experience of learning, I doubt there is a lot of benefit to these certifications.
I've never heard of the Power Point one, so if I were hiring, I would wonder why this guy is listing his CE on his resume, like who cares? As for the APHA one, I respect APHA programs, but I think that is one of the last things a hiring employer is going to be looking at......maybe if you were completely identical in all other respects with the other person they were considering to hire, then that would give you the edge, but that is unlikely to be the case.
