To describe the development and evaluation of a medication therapy management (MTM) elective that incorporates a nationally recognized certificate training program (CTP) by assessing changes in perceived abilities and values among student pharmacists, knowledge of course material, and performance conducting MTM services. Student satisfaction with course content and delivery model was also evaluated.
University faculty developed a didactic elective course to provide third-professional year student pharmacists with the opportunity to meet the learning objectives of the American Pharmacists Association (APhA) "Delivering Medication Therapy Management Services" CTP. Additional learning activities developed by course faculty included supplemental didactic content, reinforcement exercises, simulated patient interactions, self-reflections, and detailed faculty assessment and feedback. Pre- and post-course surveys collected information about student perceptions and values. Course grades for quizzes, midterm, follow-up, and final comprehensive medication review (CMR) assessments were retrospectively analyzed to assess student performance. Student satisfaction with course content and delivery methods was assessed via a survey.
Student-reported perceived abilities improved across all survey items and there was high baseline agreement with MTM value statements. Quiz results suggested student achievement of course objectives. Student performance improved in most grading domains from the midterm to final assessment. A majority of students were satisfied with the course content and delivery methods.
Evaluation of student perceived abilities and values, performance, and satisfaction support the successful incorporation of the MTM CTP along with faculty-developed supplemental content and activities into a longitudinal elective course in the pharmacy curriculum.
通过评估学生药剂师在感知能力和价值观方面的变化、课程材料知识以及开展药物治疗管理（MTM）服务的表现，来描述一门纳入国家认可证书培训项目（CTP）的药物治疗管理选修课程的开发与评估。还评估了学生对课程内容和授课模式的满意度。
大学教师开发了一门理论选修课程，为药学专业三年级学生提供机会，以实现美国药剂师协会（APhA）“提供药物治疗管理服务”CTP的学习目标。课程教师开发的其他学习活动包括补充理论内容、强化练习、模拟患者互动、自我反思以及详细的教师评估与反馈。课程前后的调查收集了有关学生认知和价值观的信息。对测验、期中考试、后续评估以及最终综合药物审查（CMR）评估的课程成绩进行回顾性分析，以评估学生表现。通过一项调查评估学生对课程内容和授课方法的满意度。
学生报告的感知能力在所有调查项目中均有所提高，并与MTM价值声明高度一致。测验结果表明学生实现了课程目标。从期中考试到最终评估，大多数评分领域的学生表现都有所提高。大多数学生对课程内容和授课方法感到满意。
对学生感知能力和价值观、表现以及满意度的评估支持了将MTM CTP以及教师开发的补充内容和活动成功纳入药学课程的纵向选修课程。
