Global Competency Framework

Description of impact

The FIP Global Competency Framework (GbCF) was first developed in 2012 (Version 1) containing a structured assembly of behavioural competencies that can contribute towards supporting foundation level practitioner development. The GbCF is a validated framework intended to act as a “mapping tool” for individuals to progress towards effective and sustained performance and to pave the way into advanced practice.
The FIP current workforce policy suggests that special attention is directed to “early career pharmacists” (the immediate post-licensure foundational period of perhaps 1 to 2 years). The GbCF is designed as a focused support structure for our younger professionals.
