Abstract
Background: This work describes the structure and function of a pharmacy student-led Podcast Student Organisation (PSO) through the perspectives of the organisation’s members, listeners, and advisors. It aims to provide a blueprint for other colleges of pharmacy to replicate and develop their own programmes and share the experiences of those involved with the PSO. Methods: Perspectives from the advisors were gathered via statements. The listener and member perspectives were collected via a survey. Data were collected to share the listener and PSO member experience regarding the PSO. Results: Based on the post-surveys meeting inclusion criteria (n = 32), most listeners showed statistically significant improvement in attitudes towards the topic of the episode (p = 0.027) and their college of pharmacy (p = 0.017). The podcast team showed statistical improvement in attitudes towards their college of pharmacy (p = 0.020) and their Doctor of Pharmacy curriculum (p = 0.046). Satisfaction responses were overwhelmingly positive after listening to the episodes. Conclusion: The PSO may help improve attitudes towards some topics and promote positive feelings regarding students’ college. This description of the PSO and lessons learned may serve as a blueprint for colleges of pharmacy considering implementation and encourage others to adopt a PSO.
