Log-in To Learn is a web-based, interactive journal club that is conducted once a month, February–November, from 12:00 noon – 1:00 p.m. CST. Pharmacists and student pharmacists who participate in this e-Journal Club will be provided with a pre-selected journal article to read and submit reflection on a few key points prior to the live session. Pharmacists then log-in to a live, web-based session where the faculty will critically evaluate the article and provide an opportunity for discussion among participants about its relevance in pharmacy practice. If you are not able to participate in the live session, the session is always available in an “archived” format, where you can view and listen to the recorded presentation and complete a post-test. In either the live or self-study format, the program provides 0.2 CEU for successful completion.
