What is the course about?
Supply chain management (SCM) is key to ensuring that resources are utilized optimally and that essential health commodities reach end-users. With developing countries spending up to a third of their healthcare budget on health commodities, SCM skills in managers and health workers are essential to enhance the performance of the supply chain system of medicines and medical supplies and further ensure the success of health programmes.
The course 'Basics of supply chain management for health systems' details all the steps and functions in the supply chain cycle and places each of those steps within the perspective of overall health system strengthening. The content has been developed by i+solutions experts based on years of experience as a pharmaceutical supply chain agent for various national and international organisations. The module was developed for the MBA program in International Health Management administered by Swiss TPH in association with the University of Basel, Switzerland.
The course is designed for health personnel, business administrators, managers and students involved in the health sector, development cooperation, healthcare programmes and projects in developing countries. No prior knowledge is required, although practical involvement in the health sector is an advantage.
Thank you
