In efforts to better meet the training needs of a new generation of healthcare professionals, simulation-based education is growing and evolving rapidly. Often, pharmacy school’s access to authentic pharmaceutical industry training is limited.

The IMU BPharm Model Industry Concept (MIC) was introduced in 2008 for just this purpose.
