NEW YORK, NY, August 19, 2011 (Press-News.org) Turn-A-Tech Inc, a Florida based organization, announces the launch of their pharmacy technician online training program in New York this Fall. This affordable and comprehensive twelve week program comes to New York at the most opportune time as a grim job market requires more trained individuals. "The timing is perfect", says Sandy Reese-Rigg RN,RPh as she makes special mention of anticipated changes in the current New York State regulations.
A few states such as Florida now acknowledge pharmacy technicians as professionals. The New York Board of Pharmacy plans to enter an official ruling to implement mandatory academic requirements for individuals wanting to become pharmacy technicians. When this law is passed, this will simply mean that New York will also consider and recognize the pharmacy technician career as a profession and will issue a license to eligible candidates.
Other states that have implemented similar laws and have issued rulings that enables candidates who have passed a national certification exam to be 'grandfathered-in', and hence, exempt from a lengthy course curriculum as long as two years. In anticipation of this ruling and of the grandfather period that will follow, Turn-A-Tech offers this program to New York at this crucial time. "We helped many people become Pharmacy Technicians in Florida, and now they boast a License issued by the Florida Board of Pharmacy" says Sandy. "How else could someone become a professional in 12 weeks?" asks Susan Chin-Jackson RPh. "It's a no brain-er", responded Sandy.
Turn-A-Tech offers two On-line Pharmacy Technician Training Programs. The first is a 12 week mentor-ship program for novice candidates trying to enter the profession and the other course is an independent self passed preparation course for experienced pharmacy techs preparing to take either the ExCPT or PTCB certification exam.
As pharmacy owners, the founders of Turn-A-Tech feel obligated to help candidates who want to become Rx techs and to offer an affordable alternative to the otherwise inflated tuition that some vocational schools now charge. Turn-A-Tech offers two online pharmacy technician training programs. The first is a 12 week mentor-ship program for novice candidates trying to enter the profession. They are pleased to partner with Allied Health to offer a comprehensive online program at a mere cost of $649 compared to $13,000 that some schools currently charge. The other course is an independent self passed preparation course for $149 for experienced pharmacy techs preparing to take either the ExCPT or PTCB certification exam.
