Welcome to the pharmacy technician page.
There are approximately 20,000 pharmacy technicians currently registered in England working in various roles, at different levels, in all sectors. CPPE offer funded learning to all pharmacy technicians who provide NHS services in England.
This page is a hub for pharmacy technician learning, from early years, foundation level to advanced practice. It will include return to the register, signposting to external learning resources and other relevant articles. The aim is to have a wide range of learning materials for pharmacy technicians housed in one place.
Have a look at these resources and events that can support you as a pharmacy technician to advance your knowledge and skills for the benefit of people who you offer pharmaceutical care to.
The aim of this self-directed e-course is to support you to recognise how your skills, knowledge, understanding and professional behaviours allow you to provide safe and effective care to the people you serve, as the pharmacy technician role continues to evolve.
