Abstract
Continuing education "mini-residencies" in drug information services were sponsored by the University of Washington School of Pharmacy's Division of Continuing Education and the University of Washington Drug Information Service (DIS) in August of 1976, 1977, and 1978. Each mini-residency covered a two-week period (a total of 80 hours) and was divided into didactic and experimential sessions. The university's DIS was the major resource for the residents. The two-week residency was designed to provide education and experience in the areas of drug information retrieval, analysis, and dissemination. The program was assessed through pre- and post-testing and a midcourse evaluation session. The residency format of the program allowed practicing pharmacists to return to the university to develop their skills in the area of drug information. The article presents a model for other drug information pharmacists who may want to offer similar training programs.
