From creating the PGx101 Community to providing networking opportunities to updates from the literature and reviewing new evidence, the PGx101 Team is determined to support and encourage your interest in advancing practice and patient care.  Investing in yourself by participating in a PGx101 educational program and/or becoming a Founding Member in the PGx101 Community will be professionally rewarding. 

How it all Started

September of 2016 is when it all began. Sue and Dan met at PGx Certification training at the inaugural Test2Learn^TM training at the University of Pittsburgh. 

In April of 2017, Dan and Sue reconnected at the OPA Annual meeting and begin discussions about how they could use their training to advance the profession and patient care. 

In the Fall of 2017, discussions continued about working together on PGx projects and survey data about PGx  showed enormous interest by pharmacists wanting to learn more about PGx.

It wasn't until March of 2018 when Sue and Dan met in Nashville at the APhA Annual Meeting that discussions on how to work together to train pharmacists about PGx materialized. Shortly thereafter, in April of 2018, PGx101, LLC was formed.

Only a few short months later, in September of 2018, the first 20-hour certification course was administered.
