Objective: To poll members of the Pharmacy Technician Educators Council (PTEC) to determine their attitudes toward the level of education and training necessary for pharmacy technicians to perform current and expanded duties. Methods: A convenience survey was developed and sent to 130 PTEC member training programs. PTEC members include directors of college, vocational, and on-the-job training programs. Results: Thirty-seven PTEC members responded, yielding a response rate of 28.5%. Responses reflected the opinions of directors of pharmacy technician programs from 19 states. All respondents agreed that the length of training for pharmacy technicians should be standardized. They also agreed that minimum competencies should be established for pharmacy technicians and that examination should be required to obtain certification or licensure that would then enable the technician to be employed in the field. Conclusions: The use of pharmacy technicians will likely increase, as will the duties pharmacy technicians perform. Expansion of the role of pharmacy technicians, however, must be in tandem with standardizing training and establishment of competencies for pharmacy technicians. Increased responsibilities should be commensurate with increased education and national examination should be required to determine competency.

In Mexico, human rights education and training programs are becoming one of the most recurrent outcomes in official settlements related to institutional violations and abuses of human rights. Despite their predominant role in addressing human rights violations, there is little systematic information on how these programs are conducted in practice. To fill the gap, this article presents a cross-case analysis of three qualitative studies that explore practitioners’ professional knowledge and practices in implementing human rights education programs in Mexico. Each individual case examines some of the challenges practitioners face in the implementation of these programs, the institutional influence on their work, and the role of their own experiences in human rights practices.

This paper explores the role of maritime law in seafarer training pursuant to amendments to the STCW Convention of 2010. The basic intention of the STCW Convention adopted in 1978 was to harmonize national regulations, seafarer training and training programs, as well as the conditions and manner of seafarer certification to raise general qualification levels of seagoing vessel crews. The STCW Convention is occasionally amended to allow legislation to take into account and stay abreast of the changing technical standards in shipping. The latest amendments to the STCW Convention were adopted at the Manila Diplomatic Conference in 2010, and entered into force and effect on 1 January 2012. Member states are required to complete the procedure of gradual implementation of the new provisions by 31 December 2016, with all seafarers being required to obtain certificates issued in accordance with the amended regulations by 1 January 2017. Although ship navigation during sailing has been significantly facilitated by the development of technics and technology, seafarers are now required to be well-versed in an increasing number of maritime law regulations and procedures promoting the safety of life and property at sea and the protection of the marine environment, while simultaneously ensuring unobstructed exploitation of ships. The latest amendments to the STCW Convention in this sense, in Model Course 7.01., impose additional seafarer training requirements, inter alia, broadening the scope of mandatory contents to be covered by maritime law courses required for the obtainment of the professional title of ship officer. The paper pays especially close attention to the newly adopted amendments and the conformity of national legislation proscribing seafarer training standards. However, it is exactly in the domain of seafarer training in maritime law that harmonization may be said to be incomplete.

Objective: To provide an overview of Ohio Administrative Code 4729 and to identify the potential role of newly approved Ohio high school training programs in preparation of registration-ready pharmacy technicians. Data Sources: Relevant sections of the Ohio Administrative Code and the Ohio public high school pharmacy technician training program application were identified through the Ohio Board of Pharmacy website. Resources on employee training and pharmacy technician demand were used from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Forbes magazine, Association for Talent Development, and ExploreGate. Information pertaining to the approved high school training programs was identified from the program-specific websites. Related materials were searched for via PubMed and Google Scholar from 2000 to present. Study Selection and Data Extraction: Portions of the Ohio Administrative Code pertaining to pharmacy technician training and registration. Articles describing the cost of employer-based training and the growth of pharmacy technician demand. Data Synthesis: Training and registration requirements for pharmacy technicians have increased over the past decade. In Ohio, pharmacy technicians must now complete an approved training program and become either a registered or certified technician with the Board of Pharmacy. Technicians may complete either a nationally recognized, employer-based, or public high school training program prior to becoming a registered or certified pharmacy technician. Ohio public high school training programs must be Board approved and must prepare students for national certification. After completing a high school training program, pharmacy technicians are adequately prepared to enter the workforce with minimal training burden to potential employers. Conclusions: Newly approved Ohio high school training programs have the potential to fulfill the increased demand for pharmacy technicians at a decreased cost to both students and employers.

Action programs dealing with unemployment problems, beth by sector and intersector, which were done in the past and those will be done in the future seems are unable to overcome the problems. This is becauce most of the programs were less attracted to the excepted participants (the unemployed). Almost all of the education and training programs offered materials only at introduction level, while in the job seeking competition the preference is a person with a master qualification or on expert in a certain job. The shift of the unemployed characteristics, from the less educated to be an educated one will also simply the action programs' type and level of education and training. It means that the programs should be designed to produce a skilled person or a master on their jobs.
