What I’ve been looking at all day is a whole bunch of adds from online schools and a bunch of not-so-helpful websites that don’t tell me what i need to do to become a pharmacy tech in tx. This is what I’ve got so far:
1) I don’t have to go to a school. i can study on my own
2) I need to take the PCTB to get certified nationally, then
3) I need to register with the TSBP to become registered.
What I don’t understand is: when I go to the website for the PCTB website I can’t register :
1- because it’s not the right time?
2- i need a certification number?
3- i need a authorization to test letter? (and if this is the
problem, how do i get one because i don’t plan
on attending a school?)
thanks for your help-

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
The PTCB currently only offers testing during established time periods.
Registration for the current testing period (January 5, 2009 – March 31, 2009) is closed.
Starting April 1, 2009 the PTCB will offer testing using a continuous testing format. You can register starting on April 1, 2009.http://www.ptcb.org/AM/Template.cfm?Sect…
You can purchase PTCE (Pharmacy Technician Certification Exam) study materials at the following website:http://www.pharmacytrainer.com
I recommend the “Interactive PTCB CD-Rom” that is available.
Two good books on the subject are:
The Pharmacy Technician, 3rd edition
The Pharmacy Technician Workbook & Certification Review, 3rd edition
