A certified pharmacy technician (CPhT) is a health care professional who works with pharmacists to give patients their medication with the correct dosage when needed. Certified pharmacy technicians can work in a variety of pharmaceutical settings like retail pharmacies, hospitals, and nursing homes. Unlike other pharmacy technicians, CPhTs go through a certification process that requires education or experience and passing an exam.

Generally, a certified pharmacy technician has passed an examination administered by either the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board (PTCB) or the National Healthcareer Association (NHA).  

The job of a certified pharmacy technician generally involves a mix of basic health care, administrative, and organizational work like keeping shelves stocked. Depending on the setting (and the laws in the state you’re in), pharmacy technicians may receive prescription requests, maintain patient profiles, manage insurance claims, or operate dispensing systems.
