PhaCE – Pharmacy Centre for Educational excellence

PhaCE – Pharmacy Centre for Educational excellence

In light of this changing role of the pharmacy profession, the pharmacy education is in dire need of a rejuvenation in order to educate pharmacists that can use their extensive knowledge about medicines to the best of the patients and society. PhaCE – Pharmacy Centre for Educational excellence, will explore how changing the way we teach and assess our students can change their professional identity, self-confidence, and professional behaviour, and how they position themselves.

Hovedinnhold

The Pharmacy Centre of Educational Excellence, PhaCE, aims to educate pharmacists with a strong sense of social responsibility and professional self-confidence, who believe they can be a part of changing the world they live and practice in. To deliver this we aim to create a centre for educational excellence with a culture based upon responsiveness, creativity, adaptability, reflection, and dissemination.  Our work will be organized into three strands:

I) Developing laboratories as learning arenas,

II) Developing excellent communicators, and

III) Developing pharmacists who embrace uncertainty.

Guiding principles for all work in PhaCE are:

1) Students as partners 2) Engaged educators, 3) Societal integration 4) Educational coherence, and 5) Value-based reflective practice.

The Centre for Pharmacy at the University of Bergen is a joint venture between the Faculty of Medicine and the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. This organisation fosters interprofessional collaboration and has resulted in strong and innovative new research. It is well suited for educating pharmacists for a broad range of careers - in laboratory and research work, regulatory and quality control work and as health care professionals in primary and secondary care. Despite being the smallest and newest of the pharmacy schools in Norway offering a 5-year degree, it has had a strong focus on educational excellence over several years. The head of the program committee Lone Holst is the first Excellent Teacher Practitioner in the field of pharmacy in Norway. Employees at the Centre have won educational awards for student active learning methods at Faculty and University level. The students participate in educational development, run a mentoring service for their peers and have won prices at the national pharmacy congress for presenting master thesis work and for presenting educational innovations. The Centre has been awarded both NORPART and “Program for student active learning” grants from DIKU.
