“…There is also a 4-year residency program for specialty pharmacists. Lao PDR has only one university that provides a 5-year curriculum with 7 months of practice experience [ 37 ]. At the present, Lao graduates are not accepted by the physicians in Lao PDR in terms of patient care collaboration and pharmacists have more limited relationships with patients than do physicians and nurses [ 38 ].…”

“…In a previous study, most students agreed or strongly agreed that MyDispense was accessible to learn [20] because the users claimed that MyDispense is very accessible and easy to use [21]. The virtual simulation enables students to practice the dispensing skills of a pharmacist in a web-based, readily accessible environment [9]. Internet-based e-learning or simulation like the MyDispense has been reputed to have increased educational accessibility, improved self-efficacy, and knowledge development, cost efficiency, learner flexibility, and class engagement [22].…”

“…Fortunately, traditional and face-to-face assessment of skills endeavored through MyDispense, a software program that virtually stimulates the dispensing process, created by Monash University in Australia and adopted by numerous institutions worldwide (8). The virtual simulation enables students to practice the dispensing skills of a pharmacist in a web-based and readily accessible environment (9). The 2016 Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education update reaffirms medication use system management as a vital part of pharmacy practice; specifically, pharmacy graduates should be "able to manage healthcare needs by using human, financial, technological, and physical resources to optimize the safety and efficacy of medication use systems" (10).…”

“…While curriculum design and teaching approaches are the two main pillars of the educational process, the infrastructure of pharmacy faculties significantly impacts students' overall experiences (Anderson et al, 2009). Sufficiently equipped laboratory facilities are necessary for pharmacy students to develop their skills and allow them to practice and strengthen their skills (Olson et al, 2022). Similar to other universities and faculties in middle-income countries, Jordanian universities and faculties are challenged by limited financial resources, a lack of funds for research projects, and the absence of research leadership (Anderson et al, 2009;Gebremariam & Gadisa, 2021).…”
