Pharma certificate launched

SPEARHEADED by the Pharmaceutical Managers’ Institute, a new professional certificate in Pharmaceutical Business Management was unveiled at the PMI AGM in Fota.

The accredited programme, which will be run in association with UCD Michael Smurfit Graduate Business School, will begin in October 2009.

Currently, there is no formal academic qualification for the pharmaceutical industry in the area of business management.

The programme is open to existing managers within the industry who are seeking a formal qualification or pharmaceutical professionals who are interested in moving into management roles.
