Happy Pharmacy Technician Day! 🥳

Have you ever wondered how it all began? Here's a video with some fun facts about the history of PTCB!

Learn how one meeting in South Bend, Indiana influenced the creation of a national certification program for pharmacy technicians.

Pharmacy technician Abbey Tennant, CPhT, administers a vaccine to PTCB Vice President of Partnership Development Liza Chapman, PharmD, at Meijer Pharmacy in Hudsonville, MI.

PTCB is proud to see CPhTs embracing opportunities for expanding their roles and supporting the demand for immunizations. In 2021, PTCB will launch the Immunization Administration Certificate, a credential that can count toward becoming an Advanced Certified Pharmacy Technician (CPhT-Adv).
