| Popis: | The goal of a professional program at a school or college of pharmacy is to produce competent and professional pharmacy practitioners. In 2009, The American College of Clinical Pharmacy published a white paper to assist in the teaching of professionalism in schools/colleges of pharmacy to include traits such as responsibility, commitment to excellence, respect for others, honesty and integrity, and care with compassion. In February 2015, the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education released their updated accreditation standards (Standards 2016) which introduced the concept of co-curricular activities (Standard 12.3): experiences that complement, augment, and/or advance what is learned in the formal didactic and experiential curriculum. This article details the Professional Development Curriculum at Western University of Health Sciences (WesternU) College of Pharmacy as a potential educational model that promotes professionalism through mandating co-curricular activities for student pharmacists. |
