This paper describes the creation and refinement of a Workload Estimator to be used at Colleges/Schools of pharmacy to calculate faculty workload.
We describe the initial development of the Workload Estimator for pharmacy practice faculty, including the consensus-building methodology and the implementation process. Additionally, we describe the annual refinement and expansion of use to pharmaceutical and administrative sciences faculty.
The final product is an Excel file with built-in multiplication factors used to estimate pharmacy faculty workload.
This Workload Estimator was identified as the most comprehensive and readily adaptable tool to estimate pharmacy faculty workload in July 2023 by the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy, Council of Faculties, and Council of Deans Task Force on Faculty Workload. The Workload Estimator is currently being studied in a multi-institutional implementation study across dozens of diverse programs across the country with norming data and qualitative perspectives on its use being collected and shared with the Academy in 2024.
本文介绍了一款工作量估算器的创建和完善过程，该估算器将用于药学院/系计算教师工作量。
我们描述了用于药学实践教师的工作量估算器的初始开发，包括共识建立方法和实施过程。此外，我们还描述了每年对药学和管理科学教师的使用情况的改进和扩展。
最终产品是一个带有内置乘法因子的 Excel 文件，用于估算药学教师的工作量。
2023 年 7 月，美国药学院协会、教师委员会和院长委员会工作组确定该工作量估算器是估算药学教师工作量最全面、适应性最强的工具。目前，该工作量估算器正在全国数十个不同项目的多机构实施研究中进行研究，正在收集和共享关于其使用的标准化数据和定性观点，并将于 2024 年在学会上进行分享。
