| Immunization & vaccine administrationPharmacists who will immunize | 1 | every renewal |
Alternatives & exemptions. Inactive status (not practicing in Wyoming) is exempt; reactivation needs CE for each inactive year, max 5 years.
Good to know. CE is earned in the previous license period = calendar year. Pharmacists who will immunize need at least 1 hour on immunizations. Requirement rose from 12 to 15 hours in the 2023 rule revision.
