Welcome to the PSNZ Enhance Programme

ENHANCE is currently the only recertification programme available in New Zealand for pharmacists.  It is provided by the Pharmaceutical Society of NZ Inc and accredited by the Pharmacy Council.

Attaining a professional qualification is not the end of the road but just one stage in the process of lifelong learning. Continuing Professional Development must be a lifelong commitment for every practising pharmacist.

ENHANCE allows pharmacists to demonstrate that they are maintaining their competence to practise through participation in relevant CPD, but it is more than just completing the minimum requirements for recertification.

It provides a mechanism for you to:

• Reflect on (think about) your current role in pharmacy practice (ie what you currently do as a pharmacist)
• Assess your competence in that role against a recognised benchmark (Competence Standards)
• Prioritise, undertake & document relevant learning to keep up-to-date and to develop and manage new and changing practice areas.
• Evaluate the impact of your learning in your practice (or direct/indirect benefit to patients) and assign an appropriate "outcome credit"
• Demonstrate a personal commitment to lifelong learning - CPD is a continuous process
