I recently completed the Advanced Certificate in Pharmacology of Addiction (Advanced) course at Stanmore School of Business, and I must say that it was a valuable learning experience. As a healthcare professional in Ghana, I needed to update my knowledge of addiction pharmacology to better address the needs of my patients. The course provided me with a detailed understanding of the pharmacology of various substances, as well as the latest treatments and interventions. I appreciated the focus on cultural competence and the recognition of the complexities of addiction in different contexts. The course materials were of good quality, and the instructors were responsive to my questions. One area for improvement could be the inclusion of more case studies from low-resource settings, which would make the course more relevant to professionals working in such contexts. Overall, I'm satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others working in healthcare or addiction services in Ghana and beyond.
