The Board or the Georgia Drugs and Narcotics Agency (GDNA) has the authority to grant special program approvals for non-ACPE (Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education) approved programs. This means that if a program does not meet the standard guidelines set by ACPE for continuing education, the Board or GDNA can still evaluate the program on a case-by-case basis and potentially approve it if it meets certain criteria or demonstrates value in enhancing the participants' professional knowledge and skills.

This flexibility is important because it allows for a broader range of educational opportunities that can be beneficial to pharmacists, especially if those programs offer significant learning experiences or cover emerging topics in pharmacy practice that may not yet be addressed in ACPE-accredited programs.

Other options reflect limitations or automatic processes that do not align with the Board's approach to ensuring flexibility and quality in continuing education. Hence, the ability to grant special program approvals is a critical function of the Board and GDNA in maintaining standards while also accommodating diverse educational offerings.
