Objective:
To develop, implement, and assess the impact of an elective course for pharmacy students on postgraduate pharmacy residency training.
Design:
An elective course on residency training was developed using short lectures, group discussions, and active-learning strategies, such as small-group exercises, mock match, and mock interview.
Assessment:
Students were asked to self-assess their understanding and abilities related to residency training at the beginning and end of the semester based on course objectives. The median post-semester responses increased for all objectives compared to baseline (p<0.05).
Conclusion:
A residency elective using a variety of teaching methods increased student knowledge and confidence in their skills regarding residency training.
