Credit Reporting
Do I need to report my own CPE credit?
Nope! The UF Office of Continuing Pharmacy Education will report your CPE credit to CPE Monitor and CE Broker (as applicable). Credit will be reported to the license number(s) you provided at the time of course registration.
I do not see my CPE credit posted to my CE Broker and/or CPE Monitor profile. What should I do?
If you do not see your CPE credit posted within 72 hours of course completion, it is possible that there is a problem that is preventing your CPE credit from being reported. Possible problems include typos or missing license numbers, incomplete coursework, or errors within the UF Destiny One enrollment system that must be manually cleared, among others. Please complete the form linked below so our team can investigate.
Certificates of Completion
Am I awarded a certificate of completion for all of my courses?
