We have just released the CPPE app into Apple’s app store and the android market. The Centre for Pharmacy Postgraduate Education (CPPE), is a not-for-profit organisation, offering continuing professional development (CPD) opportunities. Based at the University of Manchester, it is part of the Workforce Academy within the School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Science and is committed to providing high-quality, professional learning materials and excellent customer service.
The CPPE’s aim with their app is to engage with their clients and eventually to provide e-learning via their apps. To enable this, content has to be updated regularly. By making extensive use of web services, news items and quizzes can be changed on their server without resubmitting the app.
We have built built iPhone and iPad apps with different layouts for each. The iPhone layout uses the familiar drilldown table while the iPad uses a custom splitview layout. We have also built an android app which closely matches the iPhone app but reflects the android user experience.
