Our pharmacy residents have the option to earn a teaching certificate in our program. Does this interest you?

"Growing up, I always wanted to be a teacher. In fact, my interest in pharmacy began when my grandma got sick and I met her pharmacist. During my undergraduate studies, as I did research about my career trajectory, I was excited to learn about the teaching components within the field of pharmacy. I can combine my two passions, teaching and pharmacy. I am really excited about the possibility of earning a teaching certificate through (site and university). I think this experience will enhance my professional growth, and eventually, I envision myself as a pharmacy faculty member, helping the next generation of pharmacists."

While not a "make or break" question during your interview and certainly not a question with a right or wrong answer, be open and honest about your passion for educating others during your career. If you do plan on pursuing the teaching certificate, be sure to read up on the program's requirements for the certificate so you can talk about it knowledgably during your interview.
