Abstract:
The globalization of licensure for pharmacists has been under discussion recently. In order to introduce Japan's pharmacy education curriculum to the world, we tried translating the "Model Core Curriculum for Pharmacy Education - 2015 revised edition" and "THE EVALUATION STANDARDS 2011 - Japan Accreditation Board for Pharmaceutical Education" into English. The sharing of information on health care systems and pharmacy education could improve pharmacy curricula and would facilitate the global harmonization of pharmacy education in the world.
Keywords: Pharmacy education, Model Core Curriculum for pharmacy education, THE EVALUATION STANDARDS, Japan
