Health Occupations
Pharmacy Technician:

The Pharmacy Technician Program at Rowan-Cabarrus Community College provides the technical and practical training to allow the graduate to work as an assistant to a licensed pharmacist in both retail and hospital settings. The course also prepares the student to take the National Pharmacy Technician Certification Exam given by the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board. Classes consist of lecture, multimedia, discussion, text and workbook assignments, independent research, and tests of competency and understanding.

You must have taken Career Readiness Assessment (a basic academic skills assessment -- usually at no charge -- which is a pre-requisite required before registering for Pharmacy Technician). Please allow two weeks to complete prior to registration. No appointment needed.
