%X The 2015-16 Academic Affairs Standing Committee of the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP) was charged by then AACP President Cynthia Boyle to identify the entrustable professional activities (EPAs) for pharmacy graduates as they transition from completion of advanced pharmacy practice experiences into practice and postgraduate opportunities such as residency training. The process for developing the draft EPAs was described in detail in the report of the 2015-16 Academic Affairs Standing Committee.1 The 2016-17 Academic Affairs Standing Committee was charged by AACP President Joseph DiPiro with the following: (1) Compile comments and input from a broad range of stakeholders regarding the draft EPAs from the 2015-16 Committee (including comments from District meetings) and complete final edits to the document for submission to the November 2016 AACP Board of Directors meeting; (2) Develop potential uses and applications of EPA statements in pharmacy education; and (3) Create a roadmap for implementation of EPAs across the member schools and colleges. The 2016-17 Academic Affairs Committee Standing Committee Report will contain mapping to the CAPE 2013 Educational Outcomes and the JCPP Patient Care Process as well as recommendations to the AACP for broad implementation.2,
