The integrated pharmaceutical logistics system (IPLS) is a single pharmaceutical reporting and distribution system designed to respond to the pharmaceutical needs of the Ethiopian public health care system. It aims to ensure that patients always get the pharmaceuticals they need. The IPLS integrates the management of essential pharmaceuticals including pharmaceuticals that were being managed vertically by different programs. This includes HIV/AIDS, Malaria, TB and Leprosy, Maternal Health Commodities, Child Health Commodities, test kits, etc. Currently, IPLS is being implemented almost at every hospital and health center in the country and is also expanding to the new health facilities; as such, the demand for IPLS trained professionals at health facilities is growing. This training is designed to equip you with the basic skill that will be required at health facilities to implement the integrated pharmaceutical logistics system. Upon successful completion, you will be awarded a certificate.
