This is due to expanding investment in public and private pharmaceutical sector. Shortage of trained pharmaceutical human resource contributes to poor quality of pharmaceutical services and low access to medicines in the country (GIZ, 2012). Through Public-Private-Partnership (PPP) the Pharmacy Council (PC) together with Development Partners (DPs) in Germany and Pharmaceutical Training Institutions (PTIs) worked together to address the shortage of human resource for pharmacy by designing a project named “Supporting Training Institutions for Improved Pharmaceutical Services in Tanzania” in order to improve quality and capacity of PTIs in training, particularly of lower cadre pharmaceutical personnel. The Pharmacy Council formed a Steering committee that conducted a stakeholders workshop from18th – 22ndAugust 2014 in Morogoro to initiate the implementation of the project. Key activities in the implementation of this project included carrying out situational analysis, curriculum review and harmonization, development of training manual/facilitators guide, development of assessment plan, training of trainers and supportive supervision. After the curricula were reviwed and harmonized, the process of developing standardised training materials was started in August 2015 through Writer’s Workshop approach. The approach included two workshops (of two weeks each) for developing draft documents and a one-week workshop for reviewing, editing and formatting the sessions of the modules. The goals of writers workshops were to build capacity of tutors in the development of training materials and to develop high-quality, standardized teaching materials. The training package for pharmacy cadres includes a facilitator guide, assessment plan and practicum. There are 12 modules for NTA level 4 making 12 facilitator guides and one practicum guide. Acknowledgment The development of standardized training materials of a competence-based curriculum for pharmaceutical sciences has been accomplished through involvement of different stakeholders. Special thanks go to the Pharmacy Council for spearheading the harmonization of training materials in the pharmacy after noticing that training institutions in Tanzania were using different curricula and train their students differently. I would also like to extend my gratitude to St. Luke Foundation (SLF)/Kilimanjaro School of Pharmacy –Moshi for their tireless efforts to mobilize funds from development partners. Special thanks to John Snow Inc (JSI), Deutsche GesellschaftFür Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ), Merck Kgaa, BoehringerIngelheimGmbhand Bayer Pharma Ag and action medeor.V for the financial and technical support. Particular thanks are due to those who led this important process to its completion, Mrs Stella M. Mpanda Director, Childbirth Survival Intenational, and Members from the secretariat of National Council for Technical Education (NACTE) for facilitating the process. Finally, I very much appreciate the contributions of the tutors and content experts representing PTIs, hospitals, and other health training institutions. Their participation in meetings and workshops, and their input in the development of this training manual/facilitators guide have been invaluable.

This is due to expanding investment in public and private pharmaceutical sector. Shortage of trained pharmaceutical human resource contributes to poor quality of pharmaceutical services and low access to medicines in the country (GIZ, 2012). Through Public-Private-Partnership (PPP) the Pharmacy Council (PC) together with Development Partners (DPs) in Germany and Pharmaceutical Training Institutions (PTIs) worked together to address the shortage of human resource for pharmacy by designing a project named “Supporting Training Institutions for Improved Pharmaceutical Services in Tanzania” in order to improve quality and capacity of PTIs in training. CSSC prepared a Multi-actor Partnership (MAP) project proposal on how to sustain and strengthen health care in Tanzania through improvement of pharmaceutical training and an inter-institutional coordination of actors. This will harmonize and improve access to quality pharmaceutical service in Tanzania. The project has a various key stakeholders like; CSSC, NACTE, PC, TCU, CEDHA and Pharmaceutical Training Institutions (PTIs). Through this project, few PTIs will receive infrastructural improvements to increase the quantitative and qualitative capacities (CUHAS, RUCU and KSP). Furthermore this project will train Pharmaceutical tutors from different PTIs on teaching and assessment methods in Tanzania and thus improved health delivery through increased qualified human resource. It was also observed that in the previous stakeholder‟s meetings there was a need for the development of training manuals and assessment plans for NTA Level 5 & 6, in order to support the establishment and implementation of the curriculum in PTIs. During MAP kick- off workshop done in February 2018, Stakeholders agreed that there was a need for development of the said manuals and it was among the highest priority in Pharmacy education in Tanzania. Therefore this project aims at developing facilitator‟s guide and assessment plans for NTA Level 5 & 6. Pharmacy Council, CSSC and action medeor developed the Terms of Reference and selected a qualified service provider with experience in material development to develop the mentioned training manuals and assessment plan. Centre for Educational Development in Health Arusha (CEDHA) was selected and offered a contract to develop Facilitators guide for NTA level 5 & 6 and assessment plan. Centre for Educational Development in Health Arusha (CEDHA) was offered a leading role with the instructions to include experts who have developed teaching materials for NTA Level 4. These experts are primarily experienced pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical tutors. The mode of operation used by CEDHA to develop facilitators guide and assessment plan was participatory approach which included a number of activities through various workshops such as planning, and orientation of material development. After these preliminary workshops, experts developed materials individually and in-groups. Thereafter, developed iv PST 05207 Quality Assurance of Pharmaceutical Products NTA Level 5 Semester 2 draft materials were reviewed, edited and formatted and draft one was finalized and shared to stakeholders for inputs. Finally, CEDHA submitted the finalized Facilitator‟s guides and assessment plans for NTA level 5 and 6 to CSSC for endorsement, printing, dissemination and sharing with relevant authorities. There are 11 modules for NTA level 5 making 11 facilitator guides including one practicum guide. v PST 05207 Quality Assurance of Pharmaceutical Products NTA Level 5 Semester 2 Acknowledgment The development of standardized training materials of a competence-based curriculum for pharmaceutical sciences has been accomplished through involvement of different stakeholders.

I would also like to extend my gratitude to Christian Social Service Commission (CSSC) for their tireless efforts to mobilize funds from development partners (German Ministry of Industry and action medeor). It is through the implementation of the Multi-Actors Partnership (MAP) project, CSSC has been able to provide the financial and technical support needed during the development of this training material. Many thanks go to the Centre for Educational Development in Health Arusha (CEDHA) experts on health material development and training who coordinated the development of these module sessions particularly Ms. Diana H.

HMIS NOTES B.Boy o A hard drive is a secondary storage device that consists of one or more platters to which data is written using a magnetic head, all inside of an air-sealed casing. o A typical hard drive is only slightly larger than a human hand and can hold over 100 GB of data. • USB flash drive o A USB flash drive is a device used for data storage that includes a flash memory and an integrated Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface. o Most USB flash drives are removable and rewritable. o Physically, they are small, durable and reliable. o The larger their storage space, the faster they tend to operate. o USB flash drives are mechanically very robust because there are no moving parts. o They derive the power to operate from the device to which they are connected (typically a computer) via the USB port. o A USB flash drive may also be known as a flash drive or USB drive. • Memory card o A memory card is a type of storage device that is used for storing media and data files. o It provides a permanent and non-volatile medium to store data and files from the attached device. Define the Term Memory Card Memory cards are commonly used in small, portable devices, such as cameras and phones. List five (5) most popular forms of memory cards are: i. Secure Digital (SD) card ii. Compact Flash (CF) card iii. Smart Media iv. Memory Stick v. Multi Media Card (MMC) HMIS NOTES B.Boy In the healthcare system, data are store in the electronic systems, and these systems are called electronic health records (EHR) and electronic medical records (EMR) Define the following Terms • Electronic Health Records o An electronic health record (EHR) is a digital version of a patient’s paper chart. o It contains a patient’s medical history, diagnoses, medications, treatment plans, immunization dates, allergies, radiology images, and laboratory and test results in electronic format. o It is health information that is created and managed by authorized providers in a digital format capable of being shared with other providers across more than one health care organization. • Electronic Medical Records o Electronic medical records (EMRs) are a digital version of the paper charts in the clinician’s office. o EMR contain medical information used by clinicians mostly for diagnosis and treatment.. o An EMR contains the medical and treatment history of the patients in one practice. o Information in EMRs cannot easily be shared out of the medical practice. o The patient’s record can easily be printed out and shared with other members of the care team. HMIS NOTES B.Boy ELECTRONIC FILLING Filling A filing system is a plan or method of arranging documents in a prescribed order. The purpose of filing documents is to enable a quick retrieval of complete information Whenever it is required. Requirements of a good filing system o Simplicity-The filing method must be easy to understand and simple to operate. o Easy access-Documents should be easily identified and located to enable speedy pulling and filing. o Security-Documents should be safely kept and well preserved. o Tracer system-The whereabouts of documents removed from the storage must be known. Methods of Filing in Medical Records There are four common methods of filing patient records used in health facilities o Alphabetical o Chronological o Geographical o Numerical HMIS NOTES B.Boy Explanation of each method Alphabetical Filing System • Alphabetical filing is a very commonly used method for filing in general. • Examples of alphabetical filing system are, Abdallah, followed by Bakari, then Charles. Chronological Filing System Chronological filing means filing in time order. • It is used in combination with another method. • Letters for example are usually filed alphabetically according to name or subject and within each group in date order. Example of chronological filing system is, those patients who are expected to be admitted on 14th February 2010, Abdallah/14, Bakari/14, Charles/14. The 14 is a filing position in filing waiting list. • The waiting list is having filing position from 1 up to 31 according to dates. Geographical Filing System Geographical filing is based on geographical units like countries, regions, and town.

This is due to expanding investment in public and private pharmaceutical sector. Shortage of trained pharmaceutical human resource contributes to poor quality of pharmaceutical services and low access to medicines in the country (GIZ, 2012). Through Public-Private-Partnership (PPP) the Pharmacy Council (PC) together with Development Partners (DPs) in Germany and Pharmaceutical Training Institutions (PTIs) worked together to address the shortage of human resource for pharmacy by designing a project named “Supporting Training Institutions for Improved Pharmaceutical Services in Tanzania” in order to improve quality and capacity of PTIs in training, particularly of lower cadre pharmaceutical personnel. The Pharmacy Council formed a Steering committee that conducted a stakeholder’s workshop from18th – 22ndAugust 2014 in Morogoro to initiate the implementation of the project. Key activities in the implementation of this project included carrying out situational analysis, curriculum review and harmonization, development of training manual/facilitators guide, development of assessment plan, training of trainers and supportive supervision. After the curricula were reviewed and harmonized, the process of developing standardised training materials started through Writer’s Workshop approach. The approach included a number of workshops for developing, reviewing, editing and formatting the sessions of the modules. The goals of writer’s workshops were to build capacity of tutors in the development of training materials and to develop high-quality, standardized teaching materials. The training package for pharmacy cadres includes a facilitator guide, assessment plan and practicum. There are 11 modules for NTA level 5 making 11 facilitator guides including one practicum guide. Acknowledgment The development of standardized training materials of a competence-based curriculum for pharmaceutical sciences has been accomplished through involvement of different stakeholders. Special thanks go to the Pharmacy Council for spearheading the harmonization of training materials in the pharmacy after noticing that training institutions in Tanzania were using different curricula and train their students differently. I would also like to extend my gratitude to Christian Social Service Commission (CSSC) for their tireless efforts to mobilize funds from development partners (German Ministry of Industry and action medeor). It is through the implementation of the Multi-Actors Partnership (MAP) project, CSSC has been able to provide the financial and technical support needed during the development of this training material. Many thanks go to the Centre for Educational Development in Health Arusha (CEDHA) experts on health material development and training who coordinated the development of these module sessions particularly Ms. Diana H. Gamuya for her commitment in coordinating and facilitating the planning and development to its completion. Particular acknowledgements are sent to Mr. Dickson Mtalitinya and Members from the secretariat of National Council for Technical Education (NACTE) for facilitating and providing their expertise to the success of this work. It will be unfair if I will not recognize the efforts and contributions of all CEDHA supportive staff that made this process a success; accountant, secretary, drivers and printers Finally, I very much appreciate the contributions of the tutors and content experts representing PTIs, hospitals, and other health training institutions. Their participation in meetings and workshops, and their input in the development of this training manual/facilitators guide have been invaluable.

This is due to expanding investment in public and private pharmaceutical sector. Shortage of trained pharmaceutical human resource contributes to poor quality of pharmaceutical services and low access to medicines in the country (GIZ, 2012). Through Public-Private-Partnership (PPP) the Pharmacy Council (PC) together with Development Partners (DPs) in Germany and Pharmaceutical Training Institutions (PTIs) worked together to address the shortage of human resource for pharmacy by designing a project named “Supporting Training Institutions for Improved Pharmaceutical Services in Tanzania‖ in order to improve quality and capacity of PTIs in training. CSSC prepared a Multi-actor Partnership (MAP) project proposal on how to sustain and strengthen health care in Tanzania through improvement of pharmaceutical training and an inter-institutional coordination of actors. This will harmonize and improve access to quality pharmaceutical service in Tanzania. The project has a various key stakeholders like; CSSC, NACTE, PC, TCU, CEDHA and Pharmaceutical Training Institutions (PTIs). Through this project, few PTIs will receive infrastructural improvements to increase the quantitative and qualitative capacities (CUHAS, RUCU and KSP). Furthermore this project will train Pharmaceutical tutors from different PTIs on teaching and assessment methods in Tanzania and thus improved health delivery through increased qualified human resource. It was also observed that in the previous stakeholder‘s meetings there was a need for the development of training manuals and assessment plans for NTA Level 5 & 6, in order to support the establishment and implementation of the curriculum in PTIs. During MAP kick- off workshop done in February 2018, Stakeholders agreed that there was a need for development of the said manuals and it was among the highest priority in Pharmacy education in Tanzania. Therefore this project aims at developing facilitator‘s guide and assessment plans for NTA Level 5 & 6. Pharmacy Council, CSSC and action medeor developed the Terms of Reference and selected a qualified service provider with experience in material development to develop the mentioned training manuals and assessment plan. Centre for Educational Development in Health Arusha (CEDHA) was selected and offered a contract to develop Facilitators guide for NTA level 5 & 6 and assessment plan. Centre for Educational Development in Health Arusha (CEDHA) was offered a leading role with the instructions to include experts who have developed teaching materials for NTA Level 4. These experts are primarily experienced pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical tutors. The mode of operation used by CEDHA to develop facilitator‘s guide and assessment plan was participatory approach which included a number of activities through various workshops such as planning, and orientation of material development. After these preliminary PST 06101 Leadership and Management NTA L 6 Semester 2 Facilitator Guide iii workshops, experts developed materials individually and in-groups. Thereafter, developed draft materials were reviewed, edited and formatted and draft one was finalized and shared to stakeholders for inputs. Finally, CEDHA submitted the finalized Facilitator‘s guides and assessment plans for NTA level 5 and 6 to CSSC for endorsement, printing, dissemination and sharing with relevant authorities. There are 12 modules for NTA level 6 making 12 Facilitator guides and one Practicum guide.
