Team Pharmacist Training
Coming June 2025 in partnership with Howard University
USSPG is the official source for the Team Pharmacist Training certificate course -- designed for those who will (or are aspiring to) work with athletes who abide by World Anti-doping Agency (WADA) Code for anti-doping in the USA.
Participants will learn to accurately interpret the WADA Code for Team USA, from the pharmacist's perspective. We'll go beyond WADA ADEL training and HealthPro Advantage courses to apply drugs in sport knowledge in a clinical setting.
Program is delivered online only as a 5-module set.
ACPE CE credit is available.
Those who complete the course and demonstrate their ability to apply the learning objectives, to decode the WADA Prohibited List through course assignments and a final exam, will earn the title of Team Pharmacist.
Five Modules of Team Pharmacist Training:
1. The Role of the Team Pharmacist
2. Interpreting WADA Code for the Clinical Setting
