Join MASS AWIS for a fun and interactive game to learn more about the pharmaceutical industry.  The PHARM Game^® is a proven learning tool to teach novice and experienced employees about pharmaceutical drug discovery and development. Employees and contractors in the pharmaceutical industry often have a limited perspective of the complexity of the pharmaceutical business. Even senior executives may know only a particular part of the business. The PHARM Game^® is an interactive way to learn new information and reinforce current knowledge about the pharmaceutical business.  The PHARM Game^® will be facilitated by Elizabeth Treher, PhD., founder of The Learning Key.  For more information on the game go to http://www.thelearningkey.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=59
