Frequently Asked Questions

pharmacy tech working

  • Our program is designed to help you study for and pass the PTCE, which is the national pharmacy tech exam. Once you pass the exam, you can automatically apply to become CA state licensed, and once licensed, you can start applying for jobs. Our program is an online tutoring session that goes over the four sections of the PTCE, covering brand/generics, sig codes, math, and other areas that are tested for on the exam.

  • If you look into other pharmacy tech programs, many of them take months instead of weeks, and many of them can costs thousands to tens of thousands of dollars.  Our program is designed to be the quickest, easiest, and most affordable way to become a pharmacy tech in California. Check out our Advocate Educators status on the PTCB website http://www.ptcb.org/who-we-serve/educators/advocate-educators#.XGO2xfZFzIV . Look under Pharmacy Tech Study San Diego in the "P" section.

  • The fee includes the online session, book, and payment for your national pharmacy tech exam.  We provide instruction, many tests, answers to questions, and an extensive study guide to help you prepare to take the exam.

  • Unfortunately, the GI bill won't cover our program.  We currently accept cash, check, PayPal, Venmo, and all major credit cards.

  • The mission of our program is to give our students the tools needed to pass the PTCE (Pharmacy Tech Certification Exam).  We also provide a handout on the quickest way to get CA state certified once you pass your exam.  We don't officially help with job placement.  We will do what we can to give you pointers on places to apply, what they are looking for, and will even allow you to use the professors' names on your job application.  We do currently have students who completed our program working as pharmacy techs at major retail chains and hospitals in the San Diego and Temecula areas.
