Overview
Enjoy hands-on learning in simulated labs with low student/teacher ratios and expert faculty who are active in the pharmacy profession. In addition, learn from guest speakers who are pharmaceutical industry experts.
Courses are designed in consultation with practising pharmacy professionals and focus on key competency categories such as legal and ethical responsibilities, patient care, product distribution, health promotion, knowledge application, communication, intra- and inter-professional collaboration, and safety. Students apply their learning in simulated labs and during placements, providing valuable and practical experiences.
Your Career
Begin a career where you play a critical role in contributing to patient care as a pharmacy technician.
Graduates of the Pharmacy Technician diploma program at the Humber Polytechnic are in demand and have numerous opportunities to contribute to the health and well-being of Canadians. The need for pharmacy technicians remains strong, with an aging population that requires more medications and retirements of existing workers.
Pharmacy technicians have multiple responsibilities including filling and final release of prescriptions, medication reconciliation, compounding medications and managing day-to-day operations. Pursue opportunities in various settings such as community/retail and hospital pharmacies, long-term care facilities, pharmaceutical manufacturers, third-party insurance companies, computer software companies and government agencies.
