Teaching and Learning Certificate Program 2025

Program Description

The Teaching Certificate Program is an 18-hour synchronous, longitudinal professional development series designed to equip pharmacy residents and early-career pharmacists with foundational skills in teaching, precepting, and educational scholarship. This program is ideal for those interested in academic pharmacy, clinical education, or enhancing their instructional abilities in practice-based settings.

Over the course of nine sessions, participants will engage in interactive workshops covering essential topics such as instructional design, adult learning theory, experiential teaching, scholarly writing, and assessment strategies. Each session includes hands-on learning activities and practical assignments that promote reflection, collaboration, and skill development.

Participants will also develop a personal teaching philosophy, design instructional materials, and receive feedback on their teaching through peer and facilitator evaluations.

This program is accredited as a certificate program by ACPE and provides 18 CPE contact hours.

Target Audience

Pharmacy residents, fellows, preceptors who are interested in enhancing their skills in teaching and learning.
