PDA Education

The PDA's Education Hub is an online platform that provides FREE training and support to PDA members.

In April 2020, at the beginning of the pandemic, the PDA made a commitment to all provisionally registered pharmacists to ensure they had the support they needed as they took on their new roles. The PDA delivered on that promise with the launch of the PDA Education Hub in August 2020.
