Abstract

ObjectiveTo create a summary of training, education, and experience by pharmacy officer rank (colonel, lieutenant colonel, major, and captain) to produce information for senior pharmacy leaders to describe active duty army pharmacy officers and for junior army pharmacy officers to use for individual career planning. MethodsA 32-question, anonymous, and voluntary survey was developed. Active duty army pharmacy officers were able to complete the survey via the government website, Intelink. The survey was open for 6 weeks during the summer of 2017. ResultsThe survey was completed by 62% of active duty army pharmacy officers. The responses were used to create a summary of training, education, and experience by pharmacy officer rank. ConclusionThe survey was successful in capturing information relating to training, education, and experience by rank, thereby providing useful quantifiable information to describe army pharmacy officer careers. These results may prove valuable to those interested in pharmacy careers in the military, and they create an opportunity to illustrate the distinct profession of army pharmacy officers.
