Certified Pharmacy Technician (CPhT) (000000)

This program is designed to prepare students for the Certified Pharmacy Technician Exam offered by the National Healthcareer Association (NHA). The NHA exam is scheduled for two weeks after course completion (subject to change). You'll take the ExCPT exam at a PSI testing center near you, or through live remote proctoring at the location of your choice, the instructor will assist you with exam registration.

Once students have successfully passed the National Certification Exam, they must complete an additional 600 hours of guided practice in a pharmacy. There are externship opportunities available to students through our healthcare partners that can provide you with the opportunity to complete these hours. The 600 hours is required in order to meet the Louisiana State Pharmacy Board of Registry qualifications to be licensed in Louisiana.
