Pharmacist Registration Renewal Options
Full Pharmacist
Full pharmacists are permitted to engage in the practice of pharmacy (see definition in the Regulation) and may perform the restricted activities set out in section 4(1) of the Pharmacists Regulation made pursuant to the Health Professions Act.
Non-Practising Pharmacist
Non-practising pharmacists are registrants of the College who cannot provide pharmacy services, but are permitted to use the title “Pharmacist (Non-Practising)”. Non-practising pharmacists are required to submit their registration renewal application online and pay the registration fee annually, but are not required to complete CE requirements or maintain professional liability insurance as part of the application.
To register as a non-practising pharmacist, you must transfer directly from the full pharmacist register to the non-practising pharmacist register at the time of your renewal. Non-practising pharmacists who would like return to the full pharmacist register, must apply for reinstatement.
