Finalizing the Work Related to the Curriculum Outcomes and Example Objectives and Entrustable Professional Activities (COEPA) Document: The Report of the 2022-2023 Academic Affairs Standing Committee.

The 2022-23 Academic Affairs Committee was charged to 1) Complete the Center for the Advancement of Pharmacy Education (CAPE) Outcomes and Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) revisions (now renamed as COEPA - Curriculum Outcomes and Entrustable Professional Activities) after receiving feedback at the 2022 AACP Annual Meeting; 2) Offer guidance on how the revised COEPA education outcomes and EPA statements should be used by member institutions, faculty, preceptor, and students; 3) Guide input into the ongoing revision of the ACPE standards for the Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) program. The published report of the 2021-2022 Academic Affairs Committee outlines the work of the committee through the spring of 2022. This 2022-2023 AAC report focuses on the work related to finalizing the COEPA Educational Outcomes (EOs), EPAs, preamble, and glossary and formally receiving approval from the AACP Board of Directors. This report also describes the creation of a COEPA guidance document, including EO example learning objectives and EPA example tasks for the Academy, however the actual guidance document will be published separately. Finally, this current report outlines the feedback the Academic Affairs Committee sought, received, synthesized, summarized, and prioritized from key interested and affected parties about the ACPE 2016 standards revisions for the ACPE 2025 draft standards. The committee offers revisions for one AACP policy statement pertaining to diversity, equity, inclusion, accessibility, justice, and anti-racism. One new policy statement is also offered that urges ACPE to create accreditation standards for pharmacy education that support diversity, equity, inclusion, accessibility, justice, and anti-racism, despite presence of laws, executive orders, and policies that oppose these concepts.
