Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to further explore how the global vision for the future of pharmacy education shared by many stakeholders and catalyzed by the launch of the workforce development goals by the International Federation of Pharmacy (FIP) was transformed into a specific cluster of academic goals. In this chapter, the expected impact of the Pharmaceutical Workforce Development Goals in academia and pharmacy education will be further explored, with a special focus on a consensual group of statements that would be become known as “The Nanjing Statements.” The chapter explores how all these factors contributed to the change of the way the pharmaceutical workforce is educated, and how the challenge is currently being met.
