"On National Pharmacy Technician Day, PTCB recognizes the accomplishments and commitment of pharmacy technicians earning and maintaining PTCB certification and contributing to the pharmacy team," said Melissa Murer Corrigan, RPh, Executive Director and CEO of PTCB. "Safe medication use systems require the support of well-qualified and competent pharmacy technicians."
