Hosted by the Co-Curricular Community

Speakers will share details about their co-curricular programs, highlight creative changes implemented during the pandemic, and describe which, if any, of those changes they will keep going forward. Co-curricula, and pharmacy education in general, have needed to innovate and pivot rapidly to ensure that learning outcomes and ACPE Standards are being met in non-traditional ways. Co-curricular programs around the country are quite varied in all facets (Maerten-Rivera, et al, AJPE 2020). Opportunities to share our collective challenges, and how we have overcome/met those challenges, can provide all of us ideas to strengthen our programs. 

Objectives:

  1. Describe co-curricular programs of a variety of institutions.
  2. Discuss creative approaches to co-curricula implemented by a few institutions.
  3. Explain co-curricular changes made during the pandemic that are planned to continue post-pandemic.
