Programme Overview

The Higher National Diploma (HND) programme in Dispensing Technology is a build-up on the earlier Dispensing Technician (DT) Certificate programme run by the Department. The DT Certificate programme was established in 1975, and with the upgrade of the Polytechnics in 1992 by PNDC Law 321, the HND programme in Dispensing Technology was introduced to enhance the capacity of graduates from the Department in terms of performance. The aim was to meet the demands of pharmaceutical industries (hospitals, community pharmacies, etc.) by enabling graduates to handle minor repair works on the equipment and machines they handle, as well as to help them to carry out basic quality control procedures. Graduates from the Department are employed by the Ministry of Health as Pharmacy Technicians and regulated by the Pharmacy Council by the same name.
