<p class="card-text"><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> <p>Board certification is a voluntary process that confirms a pharmacist's capability, competency, education, skills, and proficiency beyond what is essential for licensure. This analysis was intended to investigate the prevalence of board-certified pharmacists in the Arab countries and compare the Board of Pharmacy Specialties (BPS) between Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Canada. A cross-sectional study was conducted. The data were mined from the BPS website. Data were managed by IBM SPSS Statistics 23.0 and presented as descriptive statistics. Of 36918 Board certified pharmacists (BCPs) until February 2018, only 4038 (10.9%) were from the outside United States of America. From 4038 BCPs, about 1782 (44.1%) were from Arab nations. Egypt has the top prevalence of the BPS among the Arab countries 937 (52.6%) BCPs. However, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia comes in the second position 442 (24.8%). Pharmacotherapy (BCPS), nutrition support pharmacy (BCNSP), critical care pharmacy (BCCCP) and oncology pharmacy (BCOP) are the highest specialties by 1474 (82.7%), 114 (6.4%), 61 (3.42%) and 60 (3.37%) respectively, while, infectious diseases pharmacy (AQID), cardiology pharmacy (AQCD) and nuclear pharmacy (BCNP) are the lowest prevalence of specialties by 7 (0.4%), 6 (0.3%) and 1 (0.06%) respectively. Added qualifications were canceled and became a new specialty in BPS as the rest of the specialties. Both infectious diseases and cardiology specialties exams are not conducted yet all over the world from the beginning of 2018. Egypt has the second prevalence 937 (2.54%), before Canada 920 (2.49%) and after United States of America 32880 (89.06%) in the worldwide in terms of BCPs. In conclusion the BCPS is the uppermost specialty; however, there is still a need for all the other specialties. In a short period, BCCCP jumped to the third position. Cardiology and infectious disease will be new specialties. Egyptian pharmacists are in the top of Arab countries, and 2nd in worldwide BCPs.</p> <iframe src="https://publications.waset.org/10010990.pdf" style="width:100%; height:400px;" frameborder="0"></iframe> <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=AQCD" title="AQCD">AQCD</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=AQID" title=" AQID"> AQID</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=Arab%20Countries" title=" Arab Countries"> Arab Countries</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=BCACP" title=" BCACP"> BCACP</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=BCCCP" title=" BCCCP"> BCCCP</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=BCGP" title=" BCGP"> BCGP</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=BCNP" title=" BCNP"> BCNP</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=BCNSP" title=" BCNSP"> BCNSP</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=BCOP" title=" BCOP"> BCOP</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=BCPPS" title=" BCPPS"> BCPPS</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=BCPS" title=" BCPS"> BCPS</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=BCPP" title=" BCPP"> BCPP</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=Board%20of%20Pharmacy%20Specialties" title=" Board of Pharmacy Specialties"> Board of Pharmacy Specialties</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=BPS" title=" BPS"> BPS</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=Canada" title=" Canada"> Canada</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=Egypt" title=" Egypt"> Egypt</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=Saudi%20Arabia" title=" Saudi Arabia"> Saudi Arabia</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=USA." title=" USA."> USA.</a> </p> <p class="card-text"><strong>Digital Object Identifier (DOI):</strong> <a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3669142" target="_blank">doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3669142</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10010990/a-cross-sectional-study-on-board-certified-pharmacists-in-arab-countries-2018-update" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10010990/apa" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">APA</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10010990/bibtex" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">BibTeX</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10010990/chicago" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Chicago</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10010990/endnote" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">EndNote</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10010990/harvard" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Harvard</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10010990/json" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">JSON</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10010990/mla" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">MLA</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10010990/ris" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">RIS</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10010990/xml" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">XML</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10010990/iso690" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">ISO 690</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10010990.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">1034</span> </span> <p class="card-text"><strong>References:</strong></p> <br>[1] Board of Pharmacy Specialties.
