Pharmacy Technician Certification
Medical Certifications Training ProgramsIf you are interested in a career as a pharmacy technician, you will find that either you need a formal qualification to enter the profession, or you will be expected to gain pharmacy technician certification alongside informal on the job training. Some pharmacy technicians actually acquire pharmacy technician certification even though they have appropriate qualifications when they enter the profession, as certification is becoming recognised as the standard.

Examinations
Pharmacy technician certification is offered by the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board, and consists of an examination on the major topics necessary to a pharmacy technician, including medical and pharmacological terminology, pharmaceutical calculations, laws and ethics, and record keeping. The successful candidates are allowed to use the initials CPhT (certified pharmacy technician) after their name.

As the pharmacy technician is becoming more important and taking more responsibility in the pharmacy industry, pharmacy technician certification is increasingly important. At the moment it is not compulsory, and many States do not require licensing, but this is likely to change in the future, and certification is likely to become the standard.

Pharmacy technician certification means that you will have a proven standard of specialty knowledge, and that employers will be able to have a good idea of the level of knowledge and skills you bring to the job. The standards are kept up because re-certification is required every two years; you have to have completed 20 hours on-the-job training, coursework and college lectures during the two years. This makes sure that you have up to date knowledge of the developments in the pharmacy industry, and are aware of safety procedures.
