While responsibilities vary depending on the pharmacy, pharmacy technicians are generally responsible for receiving prescription requests and counting and labeling medications. They may also perform necessary administrative functions such as answering phones, stocking shelves, and operating cash registers. This exciting program prepares students for the newly adopted registration requirement for pharmacy technicians in the State of Florida.
