Identifying core components of healthcare administration and leadership training programs: A comprehensive website document analysis
The study identified key KSAs and core components that can serve as a foundation for designing more comprehensive healthcare administration curricula. Notably, critical areas such as change management, cultural competence, and human resources/conflict management were underrepresented across programs, highlighting opportunities for targeted curricular enhancement. Standardizing and refining PAL programs based on these components can help ensure that pharmacy administrators and leaders acquire the competencies necessary to address the evolving challenges of healthcare. Future research should explore the alignment of current programs with these core components and assess their impact on educational and practice outcomes.
