To guide pharmacy colleges/schools in determining the knowledge, skills, and attitudes that students need to be practice-ready, the AACP Academic Affairs Committee published the Curricular Outcomes and Entrustable Professional Activities (COEPA) 2022 report. Preceptors play a vital role in ensuring students are practice-ready by observing and evaluating their performance on these educational outcomes.

Join us for the first installment of a three-part webinar series focused on reimagining diverse student recruitment through the lens of belonging. While discussions of belonging often center around current students, it's crucial to integrate belonging into the recruitment phase to foster a more inclusive student body.

Early identification of struggling pharmacy students is crucial for cultivating academic success, mental well-being, and professional development in Schools of Pharmacy. Timely intervention is key to improving retention rates by promptly addressing issues, fostering a proactive learning environment. Attend the session to gain insights into utilizing Enflux, an analytics and decision support platform for setting up an effective early intervention process. Discover how our data-driven approach, focusing on student performance in competencies rather than just scores, enables quick identification of at-risk students. This facilitates targeted and effective interventions, streamlining support services for individual student needs. The result is a notable impact on graduation rates, effectively preparing students for successful pharmacy careers.

Pharmacogenomics involves the association of genetic variation with therapeutic outcomes. The human genome, however, is only one part of the puzzle and understanding the complexities on how the genomic variation is reflected in gene expression transcript, protein variation and the genetics of host-microbe interactions help to explain the variations incompletely captured by the genome alone.

This webinar will discuss the interpersonal and cross-departmental challenges associated with curricular innovation and integration. The Academy has seen significant evidence of the benefits of the final product of curricular change, innovation, and transformation efforts, but what about the logistical beginning and middle parts of implementing change? The presenters will detail the challenges faced in working with colleagues across departments and strategies employed to optimize outcomes for everyone involved.
