Overview

The Pharmacy Technician diploma program prepares students to work collaboratively with pharmacists and other healthcare professionals in a variety of pharmacy settings. The curriculum is developed by industry experts to reflect current practices, emerging trends, and technologies, and aligns with the accreditation standards set by the Canadian Council for Accreditation of Pharmacy Programs (CCAPP). The program combines theoretical instruction with hands-on training to develop core competencies in pharmacy practice. Students gain skills in areas such as medication preparation, compounding, distribution, and accurate pharmaceutical calculations, while emphasizing patient safety and adherence to professional standards. Upon completion, graduates are equipped with the knowledge and practical experience required to pursue certification and registration as pharmacy technicians, supporting safe and effective pharmacy operations within regulated healthcare environments. This two-year program includes two community pharmacy work practicum placements and one institutional pharmacy placement. All practicums are preceptor-led, with students working under the supervision of pharmacy technicians and/or pharmacists. These unpaid placements provide relevant work experience and develop entry-to-practice competence.
