In many cases, a technician that is nationally certified receives a higher wage and is considered more qualified when searching for employment as a pharmacy technician. Many employers require Certification - CPhT.

Put very simply… No.  We provide everything you’ll need to study for, and pass the PTCE. The PTCB doesn't require any externship in order to take their exam.

You may test out of any specific module.  All that’s required for completion of any one module is a passing score on the end of module test (90%).

We are green friendly; everything is available online at your fingertips. None of the material is mailed to you.

A completion certificate will be made instantly available & emailed to you after completing the course.

The course is complete when you’ve completed each module and end of course exam - scoring an 90% or better.  You will have unlimited access to the course purchased until it expires - 5 months after purchase. It typically takes students between 4-6 weeks to complete the course.

While much of the course is delivered in video format, many students benefit from the “not so green” technique of words on paper.  We understand and encourage the printing of the available, printable materials.  They are, however, for individual use only, and under no circumstance may be reproduced, stored, or manipulated in any form without expressed written permission from Career Ignition LLC.
