  The CSPT Education Committee is excited to launch a Community of Practice focused on the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SOTL) in Pharmacology.  

  
  

  This opportunity is to connect with those with shared teaching and learning experience across Canada and share ideas and problem solving while developing and promoting excellence and teaching, learning and scholarship across Canadian Pharmacology and related medical science disciplines.

  
  

  There will be 4 sessions over the next 6 months that will allow faculty, researchers and others interested in Pharmacology (and related medical sciences) educational research with a goal to help you develop and elevate your work for career next steps, publishing and/or presenting nationally or internationally.
