After an action-packed 3 days, PSA21 Virtual has come to an end. But while PSA’s annual conference is over for another year, there’s still more online education to be found.
All education sessions were recorded and will be available on demand for up to 2 years after the event. You’ll get an email once the sessions are up and you can access them via the same conference platform.
Masterclass Mondays begin tomorrow evening with the APSA Research Masterclass. If you signed up for a 3-day registration, simply login to the platform using the same details to attend.
For those who haven’t already signed up, you can register for Masterclass Mondays here.
Dear @PSA_National: I’ve never been to one of your meetings, but the content and discussion at #PSA21VIRTUAL seems amazing. Keep up the great work!
-Your friendly 🇺🇸 pharmacist

PSA21 Virtual winners
Among the outstanding educational content, inspiring keynotes and special guests were a few close-fought competitions, which brought an extra element of fun to the virtual event.
On Friday, the Pharmacy Student of the Year was announced, while Saturday brought us a fierce competition at Pharmacy Shark Tank.
And on Sunday, compere Sir Read MyScript announced the PSA21 Virtual Point champions.
First prize – registration to PSA22 – went to Ann Touchard MPS, who led throughout the entire virtual conference. She gained more than 650,000 points by networking in the meeting hub, asking questions during sessions, browsing the exhibition, viewing content in the brochure gallery and answering trivia questions.
An original lion artwork by keynote speaker and speed artist Sarah Rowan was awarded to second place-getter Alicia Martin MPS, who amassed more than 586,000 points. The third prize of a 12-month single-user licence for AFP25 Digital went to Carla Wright MPS, whose networking and engagement gained her more than 56,000 points.
Meanwhile, Anna Barwick MPS won the photo contest with a shot of her listening to PSA21 Virtual on an iPad while driving her children to the ‘hairy monster attack’, aka the car wash. Sam Keitaanpaa MPS recreating with stuffed toys the missing face-to-face ECP social event and Raymond Truong MPS posting each day with his Pikachu cup were close behind, but Anna won the single conference registration for PSA22.

@PSA_National Thanks for continuing #PSA21VIRTUAL as a virtual event and not cancelling, it was a welcomed distraction from #SydneyLockdown
