PSA and NAPSA renew agreement for 2024/25
3 August 2024
The Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA) and the National Australian Pharmacy Students’ Association (NAPSA) have renewed their longstanding partnership to further support for pharmacy students at pharmacy schools across Australia.
The renewed Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), signed at the PSA24 National Conference, supports key NAPSA initiatives including the National Pharmacy Student Survey and the NAPSA Congress, and ensures that students are supported with professional development and further education opportunities throughout their studies.
PSA National President Associate Professor Fei Sim FPS reaffirmed PSA’s commitment to supporting pharmacy students.
“PSA has a long and proud history of supporting pharmacy students, which we are proud to continue.
“Students are the future of our profession, and it is our responsibility to support them in every possible way. Through this ongoing collaboration with NAPSA, we are not only investing in their education but also in the future of our profession.”
“This agreement not only strengthens our commitment to the development of future pharmacists but also reinforces our dedication to advancing the pharmacy profession as a whole. We look forward to continuing our close partnership with NAPSA and to seeing the positive impact this will have on pharmacy students across Australia.”
NAPSA President Sebastian Harper welcomed the renewed agreement.
“PSA is the peak body representing all 38,000 pharmacists in Australia across areas of practice.
The renewed agreement between the NAPSA and PSA exemplifies our organisations’ commitment to advancing the interests of pharmacy students.
“As the industry takes on new opportunities and challenges in the advancement of full scope, there has never been a better time to be a member of your representative bodies.”
