I took the Executive Certificate in Geriatric Pharmacology (Advanced) at Stanmore School of Business, and it was a great experience. As a doctor from Brazil, I was looking to improve my skills in managing medications for older adults. The course was well-structured, and the instructors were knowledgeable. I liked the way the course was divided into modules, each focusing on a specific aspect of geriatric pharmacology. The discussions with my peers from different countries were also valuable, as we shared our experiences and learned from each other. One thing that I found particularly useful was the section on pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in older adults, which helped me understand how to adjust medication dosages for my patients. The course materials were good, but sometimes I felt that they could be more detailed. Overall, I'm happy with what I learned, and I think the course was worth my time.

I recently completed the Executive Certificate in Geriatric Pharmacology (Advanced) at Stanmore School of Business, and I must say it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience. As a healthcare professional from Singapore, I was looking to upgrade my skills in managing medications for older adults. The course was well-organized, and the instructors were very knowledgeable. I appreciated the detailed explanations of the pharmacological principles underlying geriatric pharmacology, as well as the practical tips for managing common geriatric syndromes. The discussions with my peers were also insightful, and I learned a lot from their experiences. One area for improvement could be the inclusion of more Asian-specific examples, as some of the case studies were more relevant to Western populations. Nevertheless, I found the course materials to be of high quality, and I appreciated the flexibility of the online platform. Overall, I'm satisfied with my learning experience, and I would recommend this course to others looking to advance their knowledge in geriatric pharmacology.
