Abstract

Faculty development is a priority for colleges and schools of pharmacy for both corporate and individual success. Recommendations in the 2008 American College of Clinical Pharmacy (ACCP) position statement and white paper on faculty development remain relevant today. However, changes in educational standards, delivery of pharmacy education, and faculty and learners have prompted an update of the 2008 documents. This 2020 white paper focuses on three components: preceptor development, updates in pharmacy practice faculty development, and program formation and implementation. The paper provides evidence and recommendations for preceptor development and summarizes the literature updates related to pharmacy practice faculty development in several areas, including teaching, practice, and research. This update explores additional topics not emphasized in the previous paper, including faculty well-being, holistic career-long development, and challenges with implementing and assessing development programs.
