Abstract
Utilizing board certification to advance practice and promote specialization through formal assessment of pharmacists’ knowledge and skills is one way the profession demonstrates its commitment to improving knowledge and competence as well as assuring optimal outcomes for patients. Credentialing and privileging in health care provides an opportunity for self-regulation, peer recognition, and evaluation of a professional's education, training, experience, and competence. Board of Pharmacy Specialties currently recognizes more than 51,500 active pharmacist board certifications in 14 specialties. While oriented primarily to pharmacy practice in the United States, at least one board-certified pharmacist is located in more than 50 countries, including Spain. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the intersections of board certification and international advanced pharmacy practice frameworks.
