While pharmacy education updates learning as new information arises, changes to learning experiences can trail behind current practices and technology. There have been multiple calls for radical changes in how health professions education is delivered to ensure patients are receiving high-quality care. Competency-based education has been one way discussed in the literature for how to handle this need to develop students who have a willingness to learn and can problem-solve. The goal of this review is to examine whether competency-based education is needed to drive the profession of pharmacy forward.
To address, we collaboratively identified stakeholder perspectives to evaluate the need. The following stakeholders achieved consensus among the committee members: patients/society, learners, workplace/profession, and academic institutions.
Based on those perspectives, needs, and gaps to address those needs were identified and are presented in this review.
虽然药学教育会根据新信息更新学习内容，但学习体验的改变可能会落后于当前的实践和技术。人们多次呼吁对医疗保健专业教育的教学方式进行彻底改革，以确保患者得到高质量的护理。在文献中，已经讨论了以能力为基础的教育是如何满足这一需求的，即培养有学习意愿和解决问题能力的学生。本综述的目的是探讨是否需要以能力为基础的教育来推动药学专业的发展。
为了解决这个问题，我们共同确定了利益相关者的观点，以评估这种需求。以下利益相关者在委员会成员中达成了共识：患者/社会、学习者、工作场所/专业和学术机构。
基于这些观点、需求以及需要解决的差距，在本综述中进行了阐述。
