E-DRUG: Online course 'Management of Medicines in International Health'
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear E-druggers,
We are pleased to announce the next offering of the online course
Management of Medicines in International Health
09 October 2006 - 02 May 2007
The number and categories of usable drugs are steadily rising but the financial resources available for health services remain limited. It means that the rational management of medicines is becoming increasingly important in public health care in order to have optimal use of the allocated budget and offer health services with the best quality.
The aim of the course is to introduce the participants to the subject of rational management of medicines in health services.
It is designed for health professionals with at least one year experience in the handling of medicines such as prescribing doctors, pharmacists, health service managers, administrators and nurses preferably with working experience in Africa, Asia or Latin America.
The course itself consists of 7 modules. Each module has to be studied during a 3-weeks-period with a working load of 8 hours per module.
Following the online phase, an optional face-to-face seminar will be conducted, during which participants develop a project proposal for better management of medicines in international health. It will take place in Feldafing, Germany from 23 April - 02 May 2007.
If your are interested in taking part in the e-learning course, please send us a short e-mail. We will then provide you with the course announcement and registration form.
Application deadline is 14 August 2006.

We cordially welcome you to join us for this course.
