The Pharmacy Technician Certification Board (PTCB) introduces the Certified Pharmacy Technician Educator (CPTEd) Certification Program, a credential designed specifically for educators, instructors, and trainers dedicated to shaping the next generation of pharmacy technicians. The program was developed in collaboration with the Pharmacy Technician Educators Council (PTEC), a volunteer-led organization with goals to unite, support, and empower educators in the training of pharmacy technicians. To earn CPTEd Certification, candidates must hold a pharmacy technician certification or pharmacy degree and have at least 3 years of experience in pharmacy education or training. They must also pass a multiple choice exam and a written exam within 12 months, ensuring they have the instructional expertise and industry knowledge to effectively train future pharmacy technicians.
