How can I update my license information?
Pharmacist license information (for pharmacists and student pharmacists) is provided by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP). While we strive to have the latest information, there may be a lag depending on how frequently the state updates the information with NABP. If your license expiration date is stale or you are missing licenses, we will likely receive new data over time that will correct it.
If you wish to update or correct your license information immediately, follow these steps:
Pharmacy Profiles will only receive the license data that you have listed in your NABP eProfile, so be sure that your NABP eProfile has the correct license information.
How do you use my information?

This information is vital to the continuing evolution of the pharmacy profession. It will enable pharmacists to expand their role in providing an array of patient care services, participate more fully in provider networks and achieve recognition as qualified providers in diverse practice settings.
Your information will only be provided based on our User Agreement and strict data usage guidelines.

What are advanced credentials and which ones are included in Profiles?
Advanced credentials are certifications, certificate training programs and other advanced training programs that pharmacists take to gain skills and become qualified in specific areas of practice or management.
To ensure we maintain the highest quality, we research each advanced credential listed on Pharmacy Profiles. We want to be sure all the advanced credentials we list are valid and related to the pharmacy profession.
Once you are logged in, you can view and search the full list of advanced credentials.
What if I have an advanced credential that isn’t listed?
Let us know about it by submitting an Advanced Credential Request Form. To find the form, log in and look in the Advanced Credential section.
We appreciate your assistance in helping us identify advanced credentials for pharmacy professionals.

Yes. Two-factor authentication (2FA) is required for all Pharmacy Profiles users. In addition to your username and password, you’ll need to enter a 6-digit verification code each time you sign in.
We recommend setting up both Text Authentication and Email Authentication. If one method becomes unavailable, you can use the other to receive verification codes and access your account.
You can update your authentication methods, phone number, or email address at any time from the Account page after signing in.
