Registration Reminder

All pharmacy technicians working in New Hampshire pharmacies must be registered with the Board of Pharmacy.  A pharmacy technician is defined as a person employed by a pharmacy who may assist in performing (under the supervision of a licensed pharmacist) manipulative, nondiscretionary functions associated with the practice of pharmacy and other such duties and subject to such restrictions as the Board has specified. 

A supply of registration applications has been mailed to all NH pharmacies. A registration certificate will be issued, by the Board, to each registered technician. Certificates should be posted/kept on file in the area of the prescription department. For additional applications, please see the link below or call the Board office at (603) 271-2350.

Pharmacy Technician Certification Board

The Pharmacy Technician Certification Board was established in January 1995 through a year-long effort by the founding organizations - the American Pharmaceutical Association (APhA), the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP), the Illinois Council of Health-System Pharmacists (ICHP), and the Michigan Pharmacists Association (MPA) - to create one consolidated voluntary national certification program for pharmacy technicians.

Institute for the Certification of Pharmacy Technicians

The Institute for the Certification of Pharmacy Technicians was established in 2005 with the mission of promoting high standards of practice for pharmacy technicians and recognizing pharmacy technicians who are proficient in the knowledge and the skills needed to assist pharmacists in safely, accurately and efficiently preparing and dispensing prescriptions.  This exam, ExCPT, is nationally recognized by the National Association of Chain Drug Stores and the National Community Pharmacists Association as a psychometrically sound pharmacy technician certification exam.
