Key Points

To evaluate and summarize policies, procedures, and best practices for peer evaluation of teaching and instructional coaching programs across accredited pharmacy schools.
Administered a national survey to all ACPE-accredited pharmacy programs to evaluate institutional practices for peer evaluation of teaching/instructional coaching (PET/IC) programs (N=91 completed, response rate = 64.5%).
Analyzed program features using descriptive statistics and conducted group comparisons across institutional control (public vs. private) and institutional age (0–10 years vs. >10 years) using inferential statistics.
A total of 78.4% of institutions reported maintaining a PET/IC program, with 57.4% using combined formative and summative evaluations and 46.3% requiring mandatory faculty participation.
While 66.7% of programs utilized a single standardized evaluation instrument, only 11.9% evaluated or were actively evaluating their program's effectiveness.
Private institutions were significantly more likely to provide observer incentives than public institutions (17.1% vs. 0%).
