Important Certificate Information

  1. After completing the requirements for an activity, you can download a Certificate of Participation.
  2. Certificates of credit display only after you have claimed credit (and only for the credit type you claimed).
  3. Certificates will only appear on your My Certificate page if you have viewed or downloaded it in the activity in which the certificate was earned.
  4. ACPE does not allow joint accredited providers to provide an ACPE-specific certificate. Instead, you should download the Certificate of Participation if you claimed pharmacy (ACPE) credit.
  5. Similarly, if you are an international (non-US located) learner, rather than claiming credit, you should download a Certificate of Participation to present to the board in your home country.
