Résumé

Competency frameworks for education, training and development are widely used in the health professions, including pharmacy. Published studies suggest that competency frameworks have an impact on professional performance. Professional performance that is consistent with up-to-date knowledge and skills influences health care quality and patient safety. This review assessed the effectiveness of competency frameworks in facilitating improvement in pharmacists' performance. PubMed/Medline, CINAHL, Embase, ERIC, PsycINFO and Scopus electronic databases were searched to identify relevant literature. The findings of the included studies were synthesised qualitatively, and via a meta-analysis. The meta-analysis evaluated the odds of improved competency behaviour as a proxy measure of impact on pharmacists' performance. Study quality was assessed using 12 criteria adapted from the EPPI-Centre guidelines v0.9.7. The protocol for this review is registered on PROSPERO with reference number CRD42018096580. In total, nine interventional studies were identified for review. The review findings showed observable and significant improvement in pharmacists' performance when competency frameworks are used to appraise performance, identify knowledge gaps, and tailor learning activities. A meta-analysis that involved a total of 348 pharmacists undergoing repeat peer assessment showed pooled odds for improved competency behaviour of 4.41 (95% CI: 1.89-10.29, I These findings suggest competency frameworks facilitate improvement in pharmacists' performance; however, further evaluative studies are needed.

BACKGROUND
Competency frameworks for education, training and development are widely used in the health professions, including pharmacy. Published studies suggest that competency frameworks have an impact on professional performance. Professional performance that is consistent with up-to-date knowledge and skills influences health care quality and patient safety. This review assessed the effectiveness of competency frameworks in facilitating improvement in pharmacists' performance.
METHOD
PubMed/Medline, CINAHL, Embase, ERIC, PsycINFO and Scopus electronic databases were searched to identify relevant literature. The findings of the included studies were synthesised qualitatively, and via a meta-analysis. The meta-analysis evaluated the odds of improved competency behaviour as a proxy measure of impact on pharmacists' performance. Study quality was assessed using 12 criteria adapted from the EPPI-Centre guidelines v0.9.7. The protocol for this review is registered on PROSPERO with reference number CRD42018096580.
RESULTS
In total, nine interventional studies were identified for review. The review findings showed observable and significant improvement in pharmacists' performance when competency frameworks are used to appraise performance, identify knowledge gaps, and tailor learning activities. A meta-analysis that involved a total of 348 pharmacists undergoing repeat peer assessment showed pooled odds for improved competency behaviour of 4.41 (95% CI: 1.89-10.29, I
CONCLUSION
These findings suggest competency frameworks facilitate improvement in pharmacists' performance; however, further evaluative studies are needed.
