| Abstract: | Objective: To describe the creation of a curated, shared repository of pharmacogenomics cases for pharmacy educators and highlight the lessons learned during the process.; Methods: The 2019-2020 American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP) Pharmacogenomics Special Interest Group (PGx SIG) established an ad-hoc committee tasked with creating a pharmacogenomics patient case repository for educational purposes. Following a needs assessment, a standardized case framework was developed based on the Pharmacists' Patient Care Process. A guidance document for case authors was also created. The maintenance of the repository and student involvement are further discussed.; Results: A total of 44 pharmacogenomics cases were accepted, categorized by difficulty: 17 introductory cases, 18 intermediate cases, and 9 advanced cases. These cases cover 9 therapeutic areas and are freely available through an online network and information-sharing platform (ie, AACP Connect). Over the last 36 months, the cases have been downloaded 427 times.; Conclusion: The AACP Pharmacogenomics SIG successfully established a shared repository of educational pharmacogenomics cases using a standardized framework. This approach can serve as a model for other sections, SIGs, or educators wishing to develop case repositories in other fields of study. Future work will evaluate the direct outcomes of this resource in the academic setting.; (Copyright © 2025 American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy. Published by Elsevier Inc.
