No prior pharmacy experience is required. The 1st Pass CPhT Course starts with foundational concepts and builds from there. Whether you’re new to pharmacy or an experienced technician looking for a refresher before the certification exam, our program is designed to meet your needs.

Upon enrollment, you’ll have 6 months to complete the course, giving you plenty of flexibility.
