Area of Science:

  • Pharmaceutical Sciences
  • Continuing Professional Development
  • Pharmacy Practice Research

Background:

  • The Community Pharmacy Section (CPS) of the International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP) has been active in continuing education for community pharmacists.
  • Assessing the impact of these educational activities on the pharmacy profession is crucial for understanding their value.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the impact of CPS continuing education activities on the pharmacy profession from 1980 to 2002.
  • To interpret the influence of CPS initiatives on pharmaceutical practice and professional development.

Main Methods:

  • Document review and interpretation of materials from the Community Pharmacy Section of FIP.
  • Analysis of CPS activities related to continuing education, research coordination, and concept dissemination.

Main Results:

  • CPS continuing education activities achieved high participant satisfaction.
  • CPS coordinated international practice research and disseminated the concept of pharmaceutical care.
  • CPS activities informed national associations about new concepts and stimulated projects on pharmacy's added value.

Conclusions:

  • CPS continuing education activities likely fostered change agents within the pharmacy profession.
  • The precise impact of CPS activities is difficult to quantify due to the absence of a structured evaluation method from inception.
