To meet this outcome, colleges and schools of pharmacy are advised to first identify a set of SLD competencies aligned with their institutionĄ¯s mission and goals and then organize these competencies into a SLD framework/model. Student leadership development should be integrated vertically and horizontally within the curriculum in a deliberate and longitudinal manner. It should include all student pharmacists, begin at the point of admission, and extend beyond extracurricular activities. The schoolĄ¯s assessment plan should be aligned with the identified SLD competencies so student learning related to leadership is assessed. To accomplish these recommendations, a positive environment for SLD should be cultivated within the school, including administrative backing and resources, as well as support among the broader faculty for integrating SLD into the curriculum %K leadership %K student development %K CAPE outcomes %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4776295/
