New Conference for 2024 - Legal Issues and Risk Management Meeting

College of Pharmacy Building

This partnership between The University of Texas at Austin College of Pharmacy, the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy and other contributors aims to provide an overview of some key legal issues faced by academic pharmacy administrators.

Sessions will review strategies for addressing issues and resolutions, and interactive law sessions with application-based cases will be delivered by content experts. The topics will focus on legal issues impacting recruitment, experiential education, employment law, contracts and partnerships with outside organizations, FERPA and HIPAA rules and regulations, business offices, residency contracts and more. Attendees will be able to discuss current legal issues in higher education, evaluate legal issues facing higher education administrators in colleges/schools of pharmacy, and formulate strategies for continued legal preparedness of academic administrators in schools of pharmacy.

The format of the meeting was developed so that every key stakeholder at your institution can attend.  The program includes in-person attendance and online live broadcast. All sessions will be recorded for later viewing. This way, institution leaders can attend the sections most relevant to their work.
