Popis: We adopted a retrospective study design to explore the regulatory acts affecting the training military pharmaceutical specialists for the medical service of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation after accreditation of medical (pharmaceutical) workers, professional standards and transition to continuous medical education (continuous professional development). On this basis, we assessed the main areas of training of medical supply specialists, their career development, advanced training and retraining within the existing military healthcare system before and after mandatory accreditation of medical (pharmaceutical) workers. The main issues related to the introduction of professional standards and the compliance of the labor specified in them with the real functional duties of pharmacist officers in the military and hospital level, as well as the discrepancy between the nomenclature of pharmaceutical officer positions and that in civil healthcare. This creates certain difficulties with the passage of reaccreditation and the possibility of assigning (renewal) a qualification category (class rating). The necessity of an integrated approach to harmonize the training of military and civilian healthcare specialists, their accreditation for compliance with professional standards, career growth, positions held in accordance with competence and skills acquired, and continuous professional development cannot be overemphasized.
