Abstract

Health care is continually and rapidly evolving and it has become obvious that the pharmacy education system needs to be urgently reassessed. In this editorial paper we express the belief, as the profession seeks to future-proof itself, that the pharmacy curricula need to turn away from traditional informative learning towards flexible, digital knowledge, and competency-based education, designed to accommodate the needs of the Zalpha Generation across the globe.
