TY - JOUR T1 - A systematic review of design and implementation of quality-oriented educational management models in pharmacy education A1 - Randa Al-Madah JF - Journal of Advanced Pharmacy Education and Research JO - J Adv Pharm Educ Res SN - 2249-3379 Y1 - 2026 VL - 16 IS - 2 DO - 10.51847/ZYtmX3vLho SP - 75 EP - 84 N2 - Quality assurance in pharmacy education is increasingly shaped by accreditation expectations, competency-based reform, and institutional accountability. These pressures have encouraged pharmacy schools to adopt more formal educational management models for curriculum design, monitoring, and improvement. Despite a growing body of literature, evidence on the design characteristics, implementation processes, and practical effectiveness of quality-oriented models remains fragmented. Published work often addresses individual tools, standards, or institutional initiatives rather than offering an integrated synthesis. This systematic review aims to synthesize published studies on quality-oriented educational management models in pharmacy education. The review focuses on design principles, implementation pathways, contextual barriers, and reported educational implications. Comprehensive searches of PubMed, ERIC, Scopus, Web of Science, EMBASE, and pharmacy education-specific sources were conceptually framed around quality management, accreditation, curriculum mapping, continuous improvement, and implementation. Eligible literature included peer-reviewed primary studies, reviews, case reports, program descriptions, and conceptual analyses published in English from 2017 to 2025. The synthesis identifies recurring design components such as curriculum alignment, competency mapping, continuous improvement cycles, assessment systems, and stakeholder governance. The literature describes leadership commitment, faculty development, phased implementation, and accreditation alignment as recurring strategies for institutionalizing quality-oriented educational management. A consolidated map of design and implementation knowledge emerges from the reviewed literature. This synthesis offers pharmacy educators and administrators evidence-informed guidance for building, evaluating, and refining educational quality management systems.‎ UR - https://japer.in/article/a-systematic-review-of-design-and-implementation-of-quality-oriented-educational-management-models-i-fgewoq7e8yc5nhy ER -
