Join us for this special event! Jon Glover, PharmD, will be discussing statistics for practitioners. Statistics are usually taught prior to and/or during pharmacy school and it’s not like riding a bike. Practical application often does occur until well after formal education. During this session, we will strap on our helmets, engage the training wheels and ride through foundational building blocks. By the end of the session, we will be able to ride our bike through the methods and analytics plans of student and resident projects, as well as the methods section and results of articles we read. This event will be 2.5 hours of CE and for both pharmacists and technicians!
