The Pharmacy Technician Certification Board acquired the Pharmacy Technician Educators Council Dec. 15 with the hopes of helping pharmacy technicians build their careers and ensure patient safety.
"Technicians constantly require new and enhanced training to keep pace with their expanding role and increased responsibility," the PTCB said in a Dec. 15 news release in which they called the PTEC a "kindred spirit."
With the acquisition, the two organizations will combine their resources and infrastructure.
