AzPA 2024 Annual Convention Digital Program

A MESSAGE FROM AZPA PRESIDENT Welcome to the Arizona Pharmacy Association’s 2024 Annual Convention at Hilton Phoenix at the Peak Resort! I hope you will indulge yourself in the resort’s many amenities. The theme of this year’s conference is “Where Pharmacy Excellence Takes the Gold”.

The AzPA Board of Directors and staff are excited to celebrate 101 years of AzPA Annual Conventions with you! We will be using a digital conference app again this year which will enhance your conference experience and provide enhanced networking capabilities.

In addition to the numerous continuing education activities, please take time to visit the Exhibit Hall where you will have the opportunity to network and socialize with your colleagues and learn about the latest pharmaceutical products, technology, and services. Come enjoy the food and fun and visit with all our exhibitors for a chance to win great prizes like registration to the 2025 AzPA Annual Convention, AzPA membership, gift cards, and more!

Come join us as we celebrate our colleagues at the Awards Presentation on Saturday night. During this event we mark the transition of our Association leadership and honor our peers and colleagues. This is an exciting time to reconnect with old friends and make new acquaintances. We wrap up the convention on Sunday with more great speakers and sessions.

I want to thank the AzPA CE Committee, Annual Convention Planning Committee, Board of Directors, and staff. This year’s outstanding continuing education activities are a testament to their dedication and passion for our profession and Association. I also want to thank you for supporting the AzPA.
