This is a beginner to intermediate Certificate Course intended to inform and education pharmacists about Medication Therapy Management. The program is aimed at equipping pharmacists with all the skills and information they need to initiate and incorporate MTM services in their usual pharmacy services.

There is an increased demand for pharmacists to expand their role in the delivery of healthcare services. This calls for pharmacists to do more through promoting better health outcomes, a goal that can be better achieved through medication therapy management (MTM) services.

An advantage for pharmacists is that Medication Therapy Management builds on the skills that they already have. It only adds specific understanding and skills that directly related to the MTM Practice.

This course consists of 12 modules that take an MTM novice to an expert in under two weeks depending on schedule. This course is online based and is designed to be pursued based on an individual pace.
