| Pharmacists need to take a continuing education class from a certified place. The law requires that they take certain hours of live classes every month. There are some pharmacists who still go to the school and take the required classes. But, the trend is to take online classes at home. For pharmacists, it's especially harder since there has to be a certified instructor to answer and ask questions. Over the last few months, many internet software has been developed to fit the needs of the requirements. The software that's used by many live classroom is super talented. It lets instructor see what students are doing on the same time base and the speed in which they interact is not an issue any more. It's also a great tool to demonstrate any new computer application for pharmacists. Once the instructor locks the screen, the students are there to follow and watch it step by step. This highly interactive form increased the reality of the live classroom through voice and visual communication. This could open up many possibilities of limited online classroom.
RxSchool Launches New Live On-Line Education SoftwareBusiness Wire, line pharmacy education and learning management software, announced today that it has launched its new RxSchool Live(TM) on-line delivery software. RxSchool founders Rich Barnhart and Steve Croke will unveil this new technology next week at the NACDS Pharmacy and Technology Conference in San Diego. RxSchool Live(TM) is a powerful e-learning platform and will meet the needs of thousands of pharmacy professionals and educational providers. A recent survey conducted by RxSchool reveals that over 90% of pharmacists and pharmacy technicians prefer to participate in continuing education programs that are delivered live or on the Internet. Furthermore, many states now require pharmacists to receive a certain number of live continuing education credits and with a limited amount of traditional live education programs available, many pharmacists welcome this new option. Rich Barnhart, chief technology officer, stated: "The best part of this new platform is that we don't have to sacrifice quality when delivering our educational programs. In many ways, this software exceeds our students' expectations and provides a more interactive and quality experience than the traditional live classroom setting." RxSchool Live(TM) not only provides a quality educational experience; it also qualifies for pharmacy continuing education credit. Busy pharmacy professionals with a computer and Internet connection can now meet their live continuing education requirements from the comfort of their home or office. Steve Croke, president, adds: "Our students are embracing this new technology and our clients are using it to enhance their current educational offerings. The applications for this medium are more cost-effective than traditional live settings and are not limited to live continuing education." Morris Cody, a provider of traditional NAPLEX(R) review courses for over 30 years, plans to use RxSchool Live(TM) to complement its leading review products. As well, RxTechSchool, a leading provider of on-line pharmacy technician training, utilizes this new software for its interactive e-Classroom sessions. The flexibility of this software allows RxTechSchool to host small sessions that promote discussion and interactivity with instructors. Additional applications for the technology include software training, customer service and on-line meetings. |
