This pharmacy training program is composed of 5 parts and should be completed in the following order:
Module 1 - General Pharmacy Information
This module contains numerous pages of "general pharmacy information". If you desire to become a Pharmacy Technician, plan on going to school for pharmacy or desire a career in the healthcare industry, this information will give you an idea of what the pharmacy profession is all about. Starting any new job is stressful, but by training yourself with our program, you will have a better idea of the typical processes of a pharmacy and the general duties of a typical Pharmacy Technician.
Module 2 - Pharmacy Abbreviations
This module contains over 50 of the most common abbreviations (also called "sig codes"). Our program also includes Roman Numerals, many common drug abbreviations and multiple examples of full sig codes.
Module 3 - Brand & Generic Drug Name Association
This module contains over 55 of some of the most common brand name drugs and their generic names (if the generic form is available). You would not be expected to memorize all of these for your first day at work, but familiarizing yourself with them will only help you memorize them once you start working in the pharmacy.
Module 4 - Prescriber Handwriting Recognition
This module provides over 60 examples of doctor handwriting samples taken from original prescriptions for many common drugs (like the two examples at the top of this page). They are all original handwriting samples taken from many different doctors in multiple practice settings. Reading prescriber's handwriting is one of the most challenging tasks for new pharmacy technicians. By training yourself on this module, deciphering prescriptions will be much easier and less stressful. The Prescriber Handwriting Recognition Module ties together the previous exercises and you will practice reading the drug, determining the quantity, calculating the day-supply and deciphering the directions.
Basic Self-Assessment Quiz
The Self Assessment Quiz can only be accessed after purchasing our PharmacyTechnician Training & Orientation Program. This quiz is comprised of 24 questions and may be taken as many times as needed to achieve a score of at least 75%. Once a minimum score of 75% is achieved, a Certificate of Completion (pictured below) with your name is created along with a copy of your quiz transcript. Multiple copies should be printed down and stapled to your resume and/or job application. You should also keep your certificate on file for future needs.
