The National Association of Pharmacy Regulatory Authorities (NAPRA) has begun a process to update its current suite of model standards for pharmacy compounding. A working group will be formed to assist with the project to update these documents.
NAPRA is currently seeking subject matter experts with the following skills and expertise:
- At least 5 years’ experience as a practising pharmacist or pharmacy technician with experience in non-sterile-non-hazardous, non-sterile-hazardous, sterile-non-hazardous, and/or sterile-hazardous compounding;
- Experience working on committees or working groups in the past (experience working on a regulatory committee or working group would be an asset);
- Knowledge and understanding of conflict of interest and privacy and confidentiality requirements;
- Knowledge of standards development would be an asset;
- Ability to work comfortably in English.
Individuals who meet the above criteria and are interested in serving as an SME on the NAPRA Compounding Standards Working Group should submit their completed application form and résumé or CV, along with a letter of recommendation from an individual or body with knowledge of the candidate’s background and expertise that does not present a real or perceived conflict of interest related to the project.
This is a volunteer position, with work expected to occur between March 2024 and December 2025. It is expected that the work will involve 4-5 rounds of review of draft documents, as well as participation in 3-5 virtual meetings throughout the project. Subject matter experts appointed to the working group will be required to sign a confidentiality agreement.
Please forward completed applications, résumé/CVs and letters of recommendation to the attention of Sarah ter Huurne (sterhuurne@napra.ca) by no later than March 5, 2024. While we appreciate all applications, only those selected for consideration will be contacted.
