Public Disclosure Copy On September 15, 2014, the World Bank's Board of Executive Directors approved Additional Financing (US$3 million) to the Original Project. Signing of the legal agreement will be Page 1 of 8 Public Disclosure Authorized The World Bank Report No: ISR15836 arranged as soon as possible. Due to the security conditions in Yemen, the World Bank Implementation Support Mission scheduled for August will be rescheduled to early December 2014. In the interim, a virtual review of the project was conducted via video-conferencing in early October 2014 to discuss project progress, key issues and challenges, including issues related to fiduciary management, Additional Financing implementation, and project management. Overall there has been progress in all components, despite the challenging political and security conditions in Yemen. Most notably, the peer reviews are well-advanced for all quality improvement programs (except Hadhramout University - Marine Biology); a third round of students were enrolled in all Quality Improvement Fund (QIF) programs (except for Business Administration in Hodeida University), and the Strategic Plan for the Council for Accreditation and Quality Assurance (CAQAY) was finalized and formally launched. There have been some delays in each component, particularly the professional development of academic staff, capacity building of ministry staff, and the adoption of the new fiduciary manuals in Taiz University due to delays in Ministry of Finance's (MOF) approval.

    The Challenges of Pharmacy Education in Yemen

    American Journal of Pharmaceutical Education 2014; 78 (8) Article 146. STATEMENT The Challenges of Pharmacy Education in Yemen Yaser Mohammed Al-Worafi, PhD Department of Pharmacy Practice and Clinical Pharmacy, Qassim University, Buraidah, Saudi Arabia Submitted September 15, 2013; accepted January 31, 2014; published October 15, 2014. Pharmacy education in Yemen has faced many challenges since its introduction in the 1980s. Most Yemeni pharmacy schools, especially private ones, are experiencing difficulties in providing the right quality and quantity of clinical educational experiences. Most of these challenges are imbedded in a teaching style and curricula that have failed to respond to the needs of the community and country. The slow shift from traditional drug-dispensing to a patient-centered or focused approach in pharmacy practice requires a fundamental change in the roles and responsibilities of both policymakers and educators. The purpose of this paper is twofold: (1) to discuss the challenges facing the pharmacy education in Yemen; (2) to provided recommendations to overcome challenges. Keywords: pharmacy education, Yemen INTRODUCTION and private colleges is 5 years. The program is taught in The establishment of pharmacy colleges in Yemen is English, with Arabic language used in a few courses such relatively new. There are 4 public and 12 private colleges as Arabic and Islamic subjects.1-10 of pharmacy, but only the public colleges and 3 of the Approximately 500 pharmacy students are admitted private colleges are officially recognized. The first public yearly to the recognized public and private pharmacy pharmacy faculty (college) was established in 1987 in colleges in Yemen.10 According to a report by the Central Sana’a.

Given their widespread use, it is important to investigate their predictive validity to ensure the accuracy of the admission decisions in these institutions. This study was conducted to investigate the predictive validity of both high school GPA and college entrance test scores used as predictors in the admission process to Yemeni colleges. In addition, the differential predictive validity of high school GPA and college entrance test scores was examined across gender and high school location.
