Policy on Tap
Enjoy some beers (or your drink of choice) while getting a primer on the side of pharmacy you don’t see: advocacy and legislation.
Held at a local brewery, it’s a fun, informal gathering — talking, drinking, munching … while state legislators, lobbyists, and members of GPhA’s advocacy team update students on the kinds of legislation GPhA has worked on, and what’s on the plate for the current legislative session.
Day at the Dome
Once a year, hundreds of Georgia pharmacy students put on their white coats, gather at the Georgia State Capitol, and help flex GPhA’s political muscle.
It’s called Pharmacy Day at the Dome, GPhA’s annual advocacy events just for Georgia student pharmacists.
Pharmacy Day at the Dome is free and it’s your way to learn more about legislative advocacy, have your voice heard — and have more than a little fun in the process.
You’ll join our advocacy staff to meet virtually-to-face with legislators, and you’ll see up close and personal how we (and you!) advocate for pharmacists.
Check out some photos and videos from previous Days at the Dome!.
Georgia Pharmacy Convention
June 15-18, 2023
Omni Amelia Island
Amelia Island, Florida
See photos from 2020 convention.
Though the Georgia Pharmacy Convention has long been a favorite event of many pharmacists and students for years, Student Central was established at the 2019 Convention and continued virtually in 2020, and back in person in 2021. Student Central was created as a place specific for the student pharmacists attending to gather, mingle, and attend student specific events. We look forward to continuing to expand Student Central and seeing more student pharmacists attend convention in the future!
