The Tanzania Pharmacy Council has declared that it will cease the recognition of one-year pharmacy graduates starting in December. This decision affects individuals who have completed a one-year pharmacy program, which will no longer be deemed valid for professional practice in the country. The Council's move is aimed at ensuring that pharmacy education meets the required standards for quality and competency in the healthcare sector. As a result, graduates from these programs will need to seek alternative pathways to obtain recognized qualifications.
