Abstract
Prior to full registration, pharmacy graduates are required to undertake a year of supervised practice. During this time they must complete an accredited Intern Training Program (ITP). This final year of supervised learning is a crucial time for acquiring all necessary skills before practicing independently; key to this is preceptor feedback. The literature and our previous have noted interns often receive limited, inconsistent, irregular and unworkable feedback. The Intern Foundation Program (IFP) is an innovative program which is completed alongside the ITP, designed to enhance learning using a bespoke workplace learning plan (WLP) and credentialed Clinical Educators. Consistent, timely feedback is provided to interns using standardised rubrics, for activities such as medication history taking, communication with health care professionals, case based discussions and presentations. The IFP also integrates inquiry skills into application in the workplace with each intern undertaking a small research project.
