Pharmacy technicians: licensure requirements.

Abstract

Existing law, the Pharmacy Law, provides for the licensure and regulation of pharmacists and pharmacy technicians by the California State Board of Pharmacy. Existing law authorizes the board to issue a pharmacy technician license to an individual if that individual is a high school graduate or possesses a general educational development certificate equivalent and has either obtained a specified associate's degree, completed a specified course of training, graduated from a specified school of pharmacy, or is certified by the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board. This bill would instead, on and after January 1, 2013, authorize the board to issue a pharmacy technician license to an individual who has graduated from a school of pharmacy recognized by the board, or to an individual who is a high school graduate or possesses a general educational development certificate equivalent, passes a pharmacy technician examination recognized by the National Organization for Competency Assurance and approved by the board, and has either obtained an associate's degree in pharmacy technology or completed a course of training specified by the board.
