Abstract

Practice-based pharmacy training has a long history, particularly in institutional pharmacy practice. Formal pharmacy residency training programs and accreditation standards were first developed in the early 1960s. Practitioners now practice in a much different environment. Residency programs and accreditation standards have changed dramatically to meet the needs of practitioners, patients, and employers. The authors trace the evolution of programs from general internships through clinical practice and specialty residencies and fellowships and the development of standards and competency-based training.
