Pharmacy assistant training
July 6, 2010
GLAXOSMITHKLINE has today
launched a brand new series of online
pharmacy assistant training programs
under its myPharmAssist banner.
Designed to provide pharmacy
assistants with an expanded
knowledge base of GSK products,
and in turn to increase customer
loyalty, the updated program’s
format has been designed from
feedback of the first GSK assistant
training module, launched late last
year.
The new program will feature a
product a month on which
pharmacy assistants will be tested
on its health issues, features and
benefits, and in doing so will go
into the running to win various cash
incentives and prizes.
“Thousands of pharmacy
assistants across Australia
registered and completed the first
module when we launched the
program late last year,” said Rod
Stosic, Marketing Manager, GSK
Consumer Healthcare.
“We looked at the feedback from
the pharmacy assistants who
completed the first challenge, and
have added new modules and
redesigned the interface to make it
more user-friendly.
“As a result, we are confident
myPharmAssist.com.au will offer
pharmacists a great way to educate
their staff, as well as giving
pharmacy assistants more
confidence in helping customers
select the right products for their
needs,” he added.
There is no limit to the amount of
times an assistant may tackle each
module, and at the end of the
Module series there will be a special
MasterClass challenge for
subscribers to test their new overall
GSK product knowledge.
The first product up is GSK’s new
Panadol Extra treatment, and
pharmacy assistants who complete
its associated testing will go into
the draw to win $500 cash or one
of ten $50 iTunes vouchers.
Registration is free and assistants
can register and complete the
online training modules at
www.mypharmassist.com.au.
