AACP's Spring 2027 Virtual Pharmacy School Fair

Join us as an exhibitor at AACP's Spring 2027 Virtual Pharmacy School Fair, taking place March 10, 2027. Held as part of AACP's national Pharmacy Is Right For Me campaign, these annual events are designed to raise awareness of the vast opportunities available within the profession of pharmacy and to connect your program with prospective pharmacy students from across the country. The events feature live virtual exhibit halls, where schools showcase their programs in real time, alongside a series of interactive 30-minute workshops on topics relevant to pharmacy education and career preparation. 

*Please note that AACP and Pharm4Me are not affiliated with any other organization hosting similar events.

If we registered previously for both the Fall and Spring Fair, do we need to register again?

What if we previously registered for Fall only but now wish to participate in the Spring as well?
