Postgraduate Training

Background:

Postgraduate pharmacy residency training is crucial for career advancement.
Pharmacy students require specific knowledge and skills to succeed in residency applications and training.
Existing curricula may not adequately prepare students for the demands of residency.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop and implement an elective course focused on postgraduate pharmacy residency training.
To assess the impact of this elective course on pharmacy students' preparedness for residency.

Main Methods:

An elective course was designed incorporating lectures, group discussions, and active learning.
Active learning strategies included small-group exercises, mock residency matches, and mock interviews.
Student self-assessments were conducted pre- and post-course based on defined objectives.

Main Results:

Median self-assessed understanding and abilities related to residency training significantly increased post-semester for all objectives (p<0.05).
Students reported enhanced knowledge and confidence in skills pertinent to residency training.
The course effectively addressed key areas of residency preparedness.

Conclusions:

An elective pharmacy course utilizing diverse teaching methodologies successfully enhanced student knowledge and confidence.
The implemented course is an effective strategy for improving pharmacy students' readiness for postgraduate residency training.
This educational intervention demonstrates a positive impact on preparing future pharmacists for residency.
