    DESCRIPTION

    During this training, you will learn to assist pharmacists in tasks related to the medication circuit.

In the course of their work, pharmacy technicians use computer equipment, pharmacy application software, automated and specialized equipment, and various technologies to perform the various tasks associated with the medication circuit. The performance of these duties requires interpersonal communication and teamwork skills in an interprofessional setting.
