title: Pharmacists' participation in the development of an experiential program.
abstract: Experiential programs need input and feedback from the practice community in order to keep the student learning outcomes optimized. A proactive combined effort between practice and academia makes sense and assists the students in transition from school to practice. Understanding some basic accreditation concepts can help the practicing pharmacist align student learning experiences with the expected outcomes. This article highlights some basic accreditation concepts from the Accreditation Council on Pharmacy Education's 2007 standards that apply to experiential training in the pharmacy profession.
