The pharmacy technician profession continues to grow as the role of the technician expands with the increasing demands placed on all pharmacy personnel. Today's pharmacy technician faces more stringent requirements in many states and expanded practice and professional opportunities. Since 2017, pharmacy technicians have witnessed the launch of certificate programs from the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board (PTCB) and new opportunities to earn an Advanced Certified Pharmacy Technician (CPhT-Adv) credential and certification in sterile compounding through PTCB. At least 21 states now require technician certification, and opportunities to achieve this milestone are growing with nearly 700,000 technicians certified by PTCB and increasing availability of the Exam for Certification of Pharmacy Technicians (ExCPT), offered by the National Healthcareer Association.
