The Michigan Public Health Code and board administrative rules require every pharmacist
who has held their license for a full two-year period, to complete, during the 2-year
period prior to the renewal of the license, at least 30 hours of board-approved continuing
education, with at least 1 (one) hour in pain management and not less than 10 (ten)
hours in live programs or courses. Pursuant to this requirement, the Board of Pharmacy
has promulgated rules to establish specific criteria for the Board’s approval of continuing
education courses and programs.
