PHARMA-GUIDE DIGEST - backup

The Nigerian Academy of Pharmacy has risen to meet a vital need for the benefit of young pharmacists in Nigeria by establishing a YOUNG PHARMACIST MENTORING PLATFORM. This platform was launched recently in Nigeria to curb the menace of errors in careers found among young pharmacists by giving them early guidance (mentorship) in their chosen areas of specialization. The site for enrolment is http://www.ypmp.com.ng/mentoring/mentorees/register or Click HERE  to register.

Indeed it is a pilot initiative for other professions.

The ideals...
