Program Assesment
Â
- Written Exams: Participants may take multiple-choice quizzes and written exams that test their knowledge of pharmacovigilance principles, regulatory requirements, and adverse drug reaction (ADR) management.
- Case Studies: Detailed analyses of real-world scenarios involving drug safety issues are used to assess participants’ ability to apply theoretical knowledge practically. This could involve identifying potential ADRs, proposing monitoring strategies, and suggesting mitigation actions.
- Group Projects: Collaborative projects where participants work in teams to design a pharmacovigilance program for a hypothetical or real drug. This assesses their ability to apply risk management principles and use pharmacovigilance tools effectively.
- Practical Simulations: Interactive sessions where participants use pharmacovigilance software to monitor and analyze data, simulating the role of a pharmacovigilance officer in a controlled environment.
- Research Papers: Participants may be required to write papers or reports on specific aspects of pharmacovigilance, such as comparative studies of international regulatory frameworks or evaluations of new methodologies in drug safety monitoring.
- Oral Presentations: Presentations to peers and instructors on topics related to pharmacovigilance, demonstrating participants’ understanding and ability to communicate complex information clearly.
- Peer Reviews: Assessment may also include peer-to-peer evaluation during group activities and discussions, fostering a deeper understanding through collaborative learning.
