Look LEX is just nothing more than strategic way of delaying post and under graduates to go further their education level of utilizations.
If hpcz body was wise enough it would’ve come up with intellectual strategic plan either by making the final exams reach maximum standard level they want!
Or by trying to end an infinity chain of malpractice.
Otherwise all you are doing are absolutely unnecessary! You’ve been just grabbing money and time from people who want to go further in their educational lives.

Guys we all know that Zambia is a corrupt country. These exams are not exempt from corruption scandals that have bugged Zambia Examination Council, Zambia Police, University lecturers with student girlfriends and so on. Any political leader that wants to be seen must start by telling us how he will tackle our rotten society’s corruption. Lungu and HH have failed and they say NOTHING about this courge perhaps because they are heavily involved

In reply to Deja Vu.

They cant even elaborate on the issues that “arose from the transposition of February-March 2024” results. Do they expect us to know things without providing required background?

When Zambia only had government graduates, there was no need for HPCZ. This body came in to bridge the gap between foreign and local unregulated institutions. Thus, if I am a pharmacy graduate from the Ridgeway, all I need to practice is to firstly belong to Pharmaceutical Society of Zambia, PSZ. Nothing more.
Besides HPCZ is mostly fraught with perpetual examination malpractices

In fact it’s the local universities that produce half baked graduates so they need to go through these exams. Foreign trained graduates have genuine degrees so they are more trusted.

There is no law that mandates the HPCZ to hold examinations. The medical schools under the Higher Education accreditation institutions should be the ones responsible for quality control.
If HPCZ feels that the quality of the graduates is below par, they should apply to politicians to give them the quash the legitimacy of and sanction certain training institutions. In many countries, it is only FOREIGN graduates who are subjected to such because the licencing authority does not have jurisdiction over the medical schools.
