These Terms of Use apply to your use of the education and training services and your participation in workshops and events, hereinafter jointly referred to as the “Services”, described below, provided by Uppsala Monitoring Centre (“UMC”, “us”, “we”).
By using our Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to these terms.
UMC reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to amend these terms at any time by publishing the amendments in connection with our training offerings or otherwise. Minor amendments will not be published separately.
UMC offers learning programmes and resources that support the safer use of medicines and vaccines. UMC offers self-paced and instructor-led online courses as well as on-site workshops, user group meetings and webinars.
Some of these Services are only available to member organisations of the WHO Programme for International Drug Monitoring (“PIDM”).
Our courses are developed for PIDM members and other organisations using UMC’s products. These user segments are prioritised for accessing our courses and UMC may, in its sole discretion, reject access for other user segments.
UMC may provide a course certificate to users from PIDM members upon completion of certain courses. Please note that UMC may, in its sole discretion, reject an application for a course certificate if the requirements for that certificate are not met. UMC may also discontinue a course and cancel any outstanding course certificates that have not yet been issued.
When you create an account on our learning platform or sign up to our workshops and events, you must provide us with accurate information.

You may not use our Services to harass other users or otherwise share material that is inappropriate or not strictly related to the Services.
