This year’s National Community Pharmacists Association conference in Philadelphia was an exciting one!
The UW chapter took home the 2nd Runner Up to the “Chapter of the Year Award,” recognizing us as the third best chapter of the nation. For this achievement our chapter received $500 to use for future UW-NCPA events. In addition, two UW students received NCPA Presidential Scholarships. Andrew Heinz (a current second year student) and Linda Lei (a current third year student) both received scholarship amounts for $2000, as well as complimentary registration to the conference and a $300 travel stipend.
Finally, we are pleased to announce that Andrew Heinz was elected to be the President-Elect for the NCPA National Student Leadership Council. This was exciting news for all of us and we believe that UW’s representation at the national convention this year will create the momentum we need to strengthen our chapter even more.
Over the next year, we plan to further build our Business Plan Workshops into a series of skill-based presentations, as well as supporting the current business plan teams. We also plan to participate in the MTM Challenge, Legislative Advocacy Challenge, as well as encourage attendance to the National Legislation & Government Affairs conference. By doing so, we hope to further increase UW’s representation at the next national conference and bring home the Chapter of the Year Award next time!
