Notes

From the Florida Board website:

"First Biennium Pharmacy Technician License Renewal: If you are renewing your license for the first time and the renewal occurs less than 12 months after the initial licensure date you are only required to complete 1 hour in HIV/AIDS and 2 medication errors. If your biennial renewal occurs 12 months or more after your initial licensure date you are required to complete 9 (2 must be live) general hours of registered pharmacy technician continuing education, 1 hour of HIV/AIDS and 2 hours of medication errors."

Registered Pharmacy Technicians can only take CE courses approved for Pharmacy Techs. When taking a continuing education course, ensure to verify that it is approved for Pharmacy Technicians and not for Pharmacists. Easily access board approved ACPE Accredited CE Courses for Pharmacy Techs only here.

If you are a certified Pharmacy Tech through the PTCB or NHA, you also must meet their CE requirements for healthcare professionals.
