• The Centre for Workforce Intelligence was commissioned by the Department of Health to deliver a project that would:

• Review the future supply and demand drivers facing the pharmacist workforce up to 2040.

• Produce a report to inform a review of pharmacist education and training policy.

Workforce planning is ensuring “The right people, with the right skills, in the right places, at the right time”

• ‘the systematic examination of potential threats, opportunities and likely developments including but not restricted to those at the margins of current thinking and planning’ (Chief Scientific Adviser’s Committee, 2004).

• To identify and produce a broad range of ‘driving forces’ likely to impact on the pharmacist workforce in the future.

• Approximately 50 stakeholders and experts identified the factors influencing the future pharmacist workforce

Future pharmacist workforce project

24 stakeholders in a workshop setting developed four challenging but plausible scenarios to 2040 for the pharmacist workforce.

The four scenarios represent a shared assessment by expert stakeholders of the most impactful and least predictable futures facing the pharmacist workforce for which we need to make informed decisions and plan.

The scenarios, are not intended to describe expected, exhaustive or preferred states. They represent a plausible range of ways the future could unfold, and boundaries are set, which can be used to test policy options for robustness.

Page 14: Using system dynamics to inform future pharmacist student intake in England until 2040

Future pharmacist workforce projectKey findings on supply and demand forecasts

•The CfWI forecast of future supply of pharmacists is likely to be an underestimate if the current trends continue.

•The possible range of oversupply by 2040 across the plausible possible futures is between 11,000 and 19,000.

Workforce modellingInforming pharmacist student intakes

•Intervention may be needed to bring supply and demand of pharmacists into balance.

The CfWI recommended a staged approach to balancing supply and demand if intervening at the point of entry to university.
