This study aimed to define competency-based education (CBE) for pharmacy education and describe how strengths and barriers of CBE can support or hinder implementation.
Sixty-five studies were included from a variety of health professions in order to define competency based pharmacy education (CBPE) and identify barriers and benefits from the learner, faculty, institution, and society perspectives. From the 7 identified thematic categories, a CBPE definition was developed: "Competency-based pharmacy education is an outcomes-based curricular model of an organized framework of competencies (knowledge, skills, attitudes) for pharmacists to meet health care and societal needs. This learner-centered curricular model aligns authentic teaching and learning strategies and assessment (emphasizing workplace assessment and quality feedback) while deemphasizing time."
This article provides a definition of CBE for its application within pharmacy education. The strengths and barriers for CBE were elucidated from other health professions' education literature. Identified implementation strengths and barriers aid in the discussions on what will support or hinder the implementation of CBE in pharmacy education.
本研究旨在为药学教育定义以能力为基础的教育（CBE），并描述 CBE 的优势和障碍如何支持或阻碍其实施。
为了定义基于能力的药学教育（CBPE）并从学习者、教师、机构和社会的角度确定障碍和益处，从各种健康专业中选取了 65 项研究。从 7 个确定的主题类别中，制定了 CBPE 定义：“以能力为基础的药学教育是以满足医疗保健和社会需求的药师能力（知识、技能、态度）为组织框架的成果为基础的课程模式。这种以学习者为中心的课程模式使真实的教学和学习策略以及评估（强调工作场所评估和质量反馈）保持一致，同时降低时间的重要性。”
本文提供了 CBE 在药学教育中的应用定义。从其他健康专业的教育文献中阐明了 CBE 的优势和障碍。确定的实施优势和障碍有助于讨论支持或阻碍 CBE 在药学教育中实施的因素。
