In Minnesota, pharmacy technicians are required to notify the board upon completing their annual continuing education (CE) requirements. The Minnesota State Board of Pharmacy does not gather this information from external sources. To report their CE completion, Minnesota pharmacy technicians must upload their CPE Monitor Transcript from the NABP.
Are there recommended CE Courses for Minnesota Pharmacy Technicians?
Minnesota does not have any specific topic requirements for CE hours, so pharmacy techs are open to choosing their own. But with so many courses, how do you choose one that works for you? We recommend our top courses so you can enjoy your CE hours.
Patient Safety courses like Medication Errors are great for Minnesota Pharmacy Techs because they can help them avoid pervasive issues in the Pharmacy field. Pharmacy law is another popular topic that is often a required CE course topic in other states. Immunizations can also be a big part of a Pharmacy Tech’s day-to-day responsibilities, therefore our courses on Immunization can be a benefit. We also offer interesting Pharmacy Tech CE courses that explore modern health topics like developments in the opioid crisis - Course: It Is No Longer Just an Opioid Problem - and new developments in pain management to help combat the prevalent pain medication crisis - Course: New Developments in Pain Management. If you’re looking for a specialization, we also have a Compounding Certificate Course. View our entire course list for Minnesota Pharmacy Techs, with breakdowns by category, to find a topic that interests you so you can enjoy your hours of CE - studying a topic that enriches your career.
Our CE courses will also help you meet your Pharmacy Technician Certification Board (PTCB) pharmacy tech CE requirements. View their site for more information.
