OBJECTIVE To introduce the Dutch system of pharmacy academic education， professional practice and continuing education， and provide new ideas for constructing a “demand-driven， industry-education integrated， and sustainably developing” Chinese-style pharmacy education system. METHODS Through literature and public data retrieval， as well as collection of field visit materials， the study systematically combed the stage characteristics， institutional design， and innovative practices of Dutch pharmacy education， extracted its features and advantages， and proposed suggestions for pharmacy education reform in China. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS The Dutch pharmacy academic education system is characterized by stepped competency-based training， integrating basic theory with early clinical practice at the undergraduate level， emphasizing specialized division of labor and strengthening clinical competence at the master’s level， and promoting industry-university-research collaborative innovation at the doctoral level. The practice qualification certification and continuing education exhibit multi-dimensional synergy. Specifically， the practice qualification certification process adheres to the guiding principle of “evidence-based competency”， implementing an access system centered on competency assessment， which requires passing national examinations and registration. The continuing education for hospital pharmacists is guided by patient safety， while continuing education for community pharmacists and other pharmacists （such as industrial pharmacists， regulatory science pharmacists， etc.） is guided by the frameworks of “digital situational learning” and a “triple tracks encompassing industry， regulation， and emerging fields”， respectively. China may draw on the five-dimensional path of Dutch pharmacy education in “early integration， vertical coherence， unified standards， industry-university-research collaboration， and intelligent empowerment” to reform its pharmacy education in aspects such as curriculum design， credit systems， evaluation criteria， training models， and training methods， aiming to cultivate pharmacy professionals aligned with China’s practical E-mail：cqqianyan@hospital.cqmu.edu.cn requirements.
