Registration is open for a full-day law review course hosted by The University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC) School of Pharmacy with tips for preparing for an MPJE and a summary of need-to-know federal and state law information hosted by Dr. Kristin Villa on Tuesday, May 6, starting at 9 a.m.

The tips and federal law summaries are relevant to anyone obtaining their license across the US. Missouri and Kansas information will help those obtaining their license locally while also providing an outline of information to review for those moving outside the area. MPJE-style practice questions are provided within each section reviewed in the presentation.

A nominal fee appropriate for each level of learner will be charged. On-campus space for this class is prioritized for UMKC graduates and will be limited. A virtual option will be available to ensure soon-to-be pharmacists can join from across the country.
