Background
Many graduates of the pharmacy residency and advanced training programs
of the University of Kentucky seek careers in academia or have strong
interests in academic positions. At the University of Kentucky, multiple
teaching opportunities exist for residents and graduate students
including lecture experiences, laboratory assistance, small group
facilitation, elective rotations, faculty development seminars, and
clinical rotation teaching.
The certificate program has been developed to introduce participants
to academic literature, contemporary pharmacy/health professions
education, teaching styles, and philosophies. The primary philosophy of
the program is built upon the Carnegie Foundation’s work on teaching as
scholarship. Through attendance at and participation in seminars,
documentation of formal teaching experiences (e.g., didactic
presentations, laboratory facilitation, clinical teaching), and
development of a teaching portfolio, participants can document their
participation and experience while earning a certificate of completion.
Participants will receive handouts, bibliographies, and web site
information to encourage future learning and development.
Originally developed as an on-campus course, the Scholarship of
Teaching and Learning Certificate (STLC) program has been expanded via
teleconference technology to residency sites across Kentucky and Ohio.
The Scholarship of Teaching and Learning Certificate Program was
recognized as a 2004 winner of the American Association of Colleges of
Pharmacy Teaching Innovations Award.1,2

Audience
Healthcare professions faculty, residents, and graduate students are
invited to participate. Those who do not wish to receive certification
are welcome to participate in any component of the program.
Goal

contemporary health professions and pharmacy education issues and to
demonstrate experience and accomplishment in this area.
Requirements
In order to earn a certificate of completion, the following requirements
must be met:
Seminars
Attendance and participation in each of the 14 seminars, including
reading assignments and in-seminar activities. Seminars that are missed
(i.e., absences) will be accounted for by preparing written summaries of
the reading assignments. Summaries will be due to Kelly Smith by the
following seminar date.
