Who it is for and what you take away
Who it is for
Community, hospital and clinical pharmacists in Albania and in the diaspora.
What you take away
On completing the learning stages you can use AI tools in pharmacy work while keeping the pharmaceutical decision with the pharmacist; verify prescriptions and interaction warnings against a governing source; identify where pharmacovigilance and patient-data obligations govern a decision and justify the call; check AI output for invented interactions, wrong doses and missed reporting duties before acting; and keep a record from which a decision can be reconstructed.
- A practical task at the end of every course, which you do yourself and keep as evidence of your work.
- Your completion of each course, recorded in your account on the learning platform.

Assessment and qualification
The learning checks inside the courses are formative and qualify no one. Qualification is a separate, optional route: two human assessors review a sample of your work against the published rubric, and no AI takes part in the decision.
Pending professional ratification: the rubric used in the optional human assessment has not yet been signed by practising professionals in this field. Until it is, the programme is published as a learning programme.
A qualification is not a professional licence and does not guarantee work.
