On July 29, 2022, Governor Inslee announced his intent to rescind Proclamation 20-32.11 on October 27, 2022. This proclamation temporarily waived the requirements in Chapter 246-12 WAC related to continuing education as well as rules specific to continuing education for pharmacists and pharmacy technicians. When the proclamation ends on October 27, 2022, pharmacists and pharmacy technicians will be required to complete and to attest they have met continuing education (CE) requirements for license renewal.
At the special meeting on August 5, 2022, the commission voted that it will not take enforcement action and the department will not conduct audits until one full renewal cycle after October 27, 2022 (the effective date of the Governor’s rescission of Proclamation 20-32).

If you renew on or after October 27, 2022, your next full renewal cycle will conclude on your birthday in 2024.
