Overview:
The primary goal of this ASHP-accredited residency program is to provide specific skills and competencies
that are needed to assume leadership roles within the profession. The program offers great flexibility which
allows the residency to be tailored to the specific needs of the individual.
The program is based on the Residency Learning System (RLS) developed by ASHP and managed by the
Residency Advisory Committee (RAC). The RAC closely follows the resident’s progress throughout the
training program and provides direction when necessary. Each resident can select an advisor who will guide
and mentor them during the year.

resident’s preceptor will provide continuous feedback throughout the experience, as well as conduct a formal

preceptor and the rotation for future improvement of the program. Finally, residents are required to perform
regular self-assessment evaluations.
