A competent pharmacist has a thorough understanding of medicines. When this knowledge is combined with clinical reasoning and the ability to assess the treatment regimen in the context of an individual patient, the pharmacist becomes aneven more valuable member of the medical team.

Teaching is delivered via the Moodle online platform. Therefore, the programme is well suited to practising and experienced general and hospital pharmacists. The programme uses a problem-based learning approach, which allows participantsto develop and apply their skills in solving pharmacotherapy-related problems in a safe learning environment. As part of their independent work, participants work through patient cases, which are then discussed during online seminars.

The programme is taught in English by highly experienced clinical pharmacists from Estonia, Malta, Latvia, and other European countries. As an international micro-degree programme, it offers learners the added benefit of working and studying alongside participants from different countries.
