当今新药的开发，需要一个多专业的劳动力，无论是在工业和临床研究竞技场。药学医生（PP）和药物开发科学家（MDS）需要一定的能力水平，通过在职经验，研究生教育基础和持续的专业发展计划实现。为了评估对能力、教育和培训需求的自我认识，国际农业生产者联合会-医药培训方案编制了一份基于七个能力领域的在线调查表，并分发给国际农业生产者联合会下属专业协会的专业人员和医学发展部成员，这些专业协会设在有研究生教育设施的国家。2017年，在日本、意大利、巴西和西班牙进行了为期三个月的固定数据收集。结果表明，低，但可变水平的感知能力的各个领域，以及在工作中的资历。所有答复者都表示，在所有领域都非常需要持续的专业发展。这些结果证实并支持了国际制药协会联合会和制药培训联合会为促进在参与药物开发的专业人员中开展经认证的教育和培训而作出的持续努力。
The development of new medicines today, requires a multi-professional workforce, both in industry and the clinical research arena. Pharmaceutical physicians (PPs) and medicines development scientists (MDS) need a certain level of competence, achieved through on-the-job experience, with a postgraduate education foundation and continuous professional development programs. In order to assess the self-perception of competence, education and training needs, an on-line questionnaire based on the seven domains of competence, developed by IFAPP-PharmaTrain, was prepared and distributed among PPs and MDS members of IFAPP's affiliated professional associations in countries with facilities for postgraduate education. The data collection was run over a fixed period of three months in Japan, Italy, Brazil, and Spain during 2017. Results indicate low but variable levels of perceived competence for the various domains as well as seniority in the job. All respondents declared a significant need for continuing professional development in all domains. These results corroborate and support the continuous efforts, put in place by IFAPP and the PharmaTrain Federation, to foster the development of accredited education and training among professionals involved in medicines development.
