In pharmacy education, there is a need to train pharmacists to practice evidence-based medicine (EBM) by evaluating drug information, including primary sources, and providing optimal medical care based on patient information. At Osaka University of Pharmaceutical Sciences (currently Faculty of Pharmacy, Osaka Medical and Pharmaceutical University), team-based learning is conducted in the fourth year so that students can practice EBM in practical training. In 2020, due to restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the content of the practice was reduced from that of 2019. In this symposium review, to report the educational effectiveness of this practice, we examined the comprehension tests conducted pre and post the tests for each year. In addition, we will evaluate the learning content in EBM practice using the Kinki region’s summarized assessment chart for preparatory clinical education.
