Promoting your PSA membership

As a member of the Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA), you have exclusive access to valuable tools that can enhance your professional profile and showcase your commitment to excellence in pharmacy.

This page guides you through two powerful ways to promote your PSA membership: using post nominals and displaying a digital badge on your LinkedIn profile. These simple yet effective methods can help you stand out in your field, demonstrate your professional affiliations, and potentially open new opportunities. 

Post nominals
