Abstract

Objectives

A proliferation of articles describe the importance of interprofessional education (IPE) in promoting a collaborative practice–ready workforce. As pharmacy programs implement, develop, and assess impactful IPE activities and experiences in their didactic and experiential curricula, it is important to consider various IPE frameworks and accreditation expectations. This article aims to elucidate best practices for high-quality IPE by taking into account the recently released 2022 Curriculum Outcomes and Entrustable Professional Activities, 2023 Interprofessional Education Collaborative Competencies, and 2025 Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education Standards.

Findings

Multiple factors were identified as important considerations for building and sustaining effective IPE programs, including (1) institutional readiness, (2) institutional culture, (3) infrastructure, (4) financial considerations, (5) faculty development, (6) curricular programming, and (7) outcomes assessment. Evidence supports these factors as best practices for quality IPE and articulates how these elements can be used to mitigate challenges and/or barriers experienced in developing, implementing, and advancing IPE.

Summary

Equipping learners with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes to work effectively as part of an interprofessional team is key to developing a collaborative practice–ready pharmacy workforce. The 2023 Interprofessional Education Collaborative Competencies, which serve as a consensus framework to advance IPE, informed the development of the interprofessional collaboration elements in the 2022 Curriculum Outcomes and Entrustable Professional Activities and 2025 Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education Standards. Individual programs should leverage best practices related to institutional considerations, curricular development, and assessment to establish successful IPE programs.

跨专业教育的最佳实践，以满足课程成果和委托专业活动（COEPA）的要求。

目的：大量文章阐述了跨专业教育（IPE）对促进合作实践队伍建设的重要性。当药学课程在其教学和体验课程中实施、开发和评估有影响力的 IPE 活动和经验时，考虑各种 IPE 框架和认证期望非常重要。本文旨在阐明高质量 IPE 的最佳实践，同时考虑到最近发布的 2022 年课程成果和可委托专业活动 (COEPA)、2023 年跨专业教育合作 (IPEC) 能力以及 2025 年药学教育认证委员会 (ACPE) 标准：多种因素被认为是建立和维持有效 IPE 项目的重要考虑因素，包括：(1) 机构准备；(2) 机构文化；(3) 基础设施；(4) 财务考虑；(5) 师资发展；(6) 课程计划；(7) 成果评估。有证据支持这些因素是高质量 IPE 的最佳实践，并阐明了如何利用这些因素来减轻在开发、实施和推进 IPE 过程中遇到的挑战和/或障碍。摘要：让学习者具备作为跨专业团队的一员有效工作的知识、技能和态度，是培养一支协作性的、为实践做好准备的药学人才队伍的关键。2023 年 IPEC 能力作为推进跨专业教育的共识框架，为制定 2022 年 COEPA 和 2025 年 ACPE 标准中的跨专业协作要素提供了依据。各个项目应充分利用与机构考虑因素、课程开发和评估相关的最佳实践，以建立成功的 IPE 项目。
