At Université Laval, our local CAPSI representatives help the students to be aware of all the perks and advantages one may have while being a CAPSI member. We also help organize events held for students as well as the general public. For example, a student event held this year was one about the education of the use of inhalers. On the other hand, in collaboration of the CIEPUL, events held for the general public include explaining the role of the pharmacist to CEGEP students.
