The PA Conference is the pharmacy industry’s opportunity to acknowledge, celebrate and reward pharmacy assistants and provides pharmacy assistants with an amazing opportunity to engage with peers and learn from the experiences of others.

The educational aspect of the conference consists of:

• Plenary sessions – key insights into common community pharmacy issues and motivational topics;
• The pharmacy knowledge stream – specific product information and updates; and
• The management and operations stream – provides practical tools for the day-to-day operations of a community pharmacy and managing staff.

The trade exhibition provides a unique opportunity for delegates to connect with industry suppliers about the latest product and service innovations. It features up to 30 stands, with suppliers ranging from complementary medicines and OTC products to pain relief and blood pressure monitoring devices.
