RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS ：The curriculum management of continuing education for licensed pharmacists in the United States has clear curriculum objectives ，missions and plans ，and evaluates the basic situation of the trainees before continuing education starts ，so as to carry out modular management of the curriculum （including continuing education courses based on knowledge ，application and practice）. In terms of the implementation system of continuing education in the United States ，ACPE has put forward a lifelong learning model （pharmacist continuing career development model ）that emphasizes autonomy and personalization ，and has detailed regulations on teaching methods ，learning cycle and fees.
