-

-
- Pharmaceutical Care Skills

- Student & Practice Educator Tips for Success
Time Commitment:
I-PREP material is designed to be led by the student in an asynchronous fashion and thus completed at their own pace. Therefore there is not a specific time commitment that you are expected to complete I-PREP within. While registration is open for a year, you are encouraged to engage with the material as much or as little as you find relevant and useful in preparing you for future practicums. Previous students have found that “a few hours” per module over the span of 2-3 weeks to be quite doable. During the initial meetings with your I-PREP Faculty Member, you should discuss a tentative timeline and check in with them during the midpoint meeting about any changes you might want to make to it.
