Future Certified Pharmacy Technicians can now practice for important certifying exams online at their convenience. This is a welcome addition to the hundreds of practice tests available for free to library patrons through the LearningExpress Library website.

To be granted the title of Certified Pharmacy Technician (CPhT), candidates must take and pass the Institute for the Certification of Pharmacy Technicians' (ICPT) national certification exam, the Exam for the Certification of Pharmacy Technicians (ExCPT).
