Learning exchange study tour on SIAMED software

Eight technical officers responsible for medicines registration in the Pharmacy Administration Department of the Libyan Ministry of Health and three technical officers from WHO attended the learning exchange study tour.

The study tour was organized as a follow-up to the SIAMED software installation and training that took place on 25 March–7 April 2018 at the Pharmacy Administration Department in Tripoli.

The collaboration allowed participants to experience “live” usage of the SIAMED software for medicines registration and the registration of manufacturers and marketeers.

The study tour participants were shown the procedures for issuing new marketing authorizations, making renewals and amendments and rejecting authorizations. The participants benefitted from an enhanced understanding of all aspects of the registration process.
