CONGRATS TO GINGERS! Re: I graduated

June 30, 2007

Hi Jeanetta,

Thank you!

I graduated from Boston college that had an adult ed. class at

College of the Desert in Palm Desert. I went to school once a week on

Saturdays for the whole day. We used The Pharmacy Technician book by

Thomson (Delmar Learning) written by Jahangir Moini.

I was told that I didn't need the PTCB certification unless I went to

work at Walgreens. I was also told that I " might " need the PTCB

certification by 2008.

I am new at this, so I considered this to be the truth.

students to take the PTCB exam before externship has finished but

after they completeed the course work, since 2000. I implemented

this BEFORE ANY OTHER CALIFORNIA School.

possible. If you have heard anthing on this please share this. Why do

you think so? Any inside scoop?

schooling AND much BETTER Schooling than what is currently offered by

ALL schools across the US, is the best way to educate, train and

prepare to be a tech in practicing in TODAY's pharmacy.
