Summary/Abstract: Already in antiquity, there were healers in Slovenia who prepared and used medicines and ointments in their treatments. However, formal pharmacy education in Slovenia only started after the end of the Second World War, and prior to that, Slovenians studied abroad. The first school for pharmaceutical assistants was established in 1946. The fully reformed university course in pharmacy began in 1960. At present, it takes four years to train as a pharmaceutical technician and five years to obtain a master’s degree in a pharmacy. Working in pharmacy requires precision, responsibility, and professionalism, as well as a lot of theoretical and practical knowledge. The purpose of this article is to show the development and course of pharmacy education in Slovenia over time.
