FIP, as the global leader for pharmacy, has taken the initiative to build the “FIP World List of Pharmacy Schools”, which will be the most comprehensive and up-to-date list of pharmacy institutions from around the world. This global list is intended to guide all pharmacy stakeholders, from students to policymakers, in assessing the appropriateness and effectiveness of pharmacy education strategies. The availability, completeness and quality of FIP’s World List of Pharmacy Schools means it will provide a unique source of information for pharmaceutical workforce policies, procedures and plans.
Further background on the FIP World List of Pharmacy Schools:
The FIP World List of Pharmacy Schools is an initiative to monitor pharmaceutical capacity and capability, similar to those of many other global organisations, such as the World Medical Schools List held by the World Medical Association. Given 2021 is the World Health Organization’s Year of Health and Care Workers, the need for our global organisations to demonstrate increased capacity in all health workers is key to ensure our professions are not further diminished but amplified.
FIP is a founder member of the World Health Professions Alliance (WHPA) with doctors, nurses, dentists, and physiotherapists. All WHPA members have been requested to feedback their schools’ status to the WHO as part of pandemic preparedness, and FIP having a list of accredited pharmacy schools will help to identify where schools may be needed and created to ensure long-term pharmaceutical workforce capacity.

University strategic plan
In developing change strategies for the university, USTY has used the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) approach. Starting from defining the four strategic objectives according to the four dimensions of BSC, several sub-objectives have been branched out from the four strategic objectives. Each sub-objective is achieved by implementing projects to directly achieve the objective. Indicators have been developed to measure the extent to which sub-objectives have been achieved. The monitoring and evaluation mechanism is implemented regularly and continuously in accordance with the BSC tools previously prepared for this purpose. Through a system of monthly and quarterly reports from all departments and branches of the university, we have developed standards to measure the implementation and success of projects on time.
