Sunday, July 21, 2024
10:00 AM – 11:00 AM East Coast USA Time
Location: Hynes: 310
CE: 1.00

Learning Objectives:

At the completion of this activity, participants will be able to:
  • Discuss the critical role of research in improving patient care and advancing the pharmacy profession, emphasizing the need for standardized recommendations in research competence
  • Describe the collaborative approach and methodology used in the development of research Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs)
  • Identify strategies to implement research EPAs in their own institutions
Research is pivotal to enhancing patient care and advancing the pharmacy profession. However, standardized recommendations for research competence in pharmacist training programs are lacking. To help address this gap, an international team developed research EPAs for practicing pharmacists that can be used in the training and assessment of pharmacy learners. This session will describe the process used to develop the EPAs and provide participants an opportunity to discuss utility at their own institutions.
