Program Overview:

With the steady growth in health services and as the Canadian population continues to age, the need for Pharmacy Technicians is great. This full Westervelt program is taught by certified Pharmacy Technicians and divided into three components: classroom lectures for theoretical knowledge, labs where you’ll practice your skills in our fully-equipped Pharmacy Lab, and field placements, where you will receive valuable training and experience.

As part of the course, students will have the opportunity to write the exam to become a Certified Pharmacy Technician through the Ontario College of Pharmacists upon completion of the program.
