Abstract

As Dr. Svensson articulated, experiential training of future pharmacists has changed significantly. The responsibility to manage these clinical experiences has transitioned from state boards of pharmacy to colleges and schools. My family experienced this change first hand with my grandfather in the 1940s, my father in the 1970s, and then my wife, brother, and I in the 1990s and 2000s as we each completed our respective pharmacy degree programs. These changes coupled with the debate over the future of pharmacy practice have been the topics of many dinner conversations. Dr. Svensson states the main reason regulation of experiential training was moved to schools of pharmacy was to assure that students were spending their time in activities that were preparing them to function as practicing pharmacists.
