Centennial College’s Pharmacy Technician program offers a dynamic curriculum based on the National Association of Pharmacy Regulatory Authorities (NAPRA) competencies.

The learner-centred environment fostered in this pharmacy diploma program will allow you to gain the scope of skills needed for the profession.

What You’ll Learn

  • Receiving, ordering and managing inventory
  • Preparing, dispensing and compounding medications
  • Interacting with patients and a variety of health care providers
  • Assisting in the provision of pharmaceutical care and pharmacy services

This Pharmacy Technician program will help you to gain knowledge of pharmacology as well as aseptic technique, pharmaceutical calculations, compounding, inventory control, and community and institution dispensing skills.

You’ll enjoy a mix of classroom and hands-on practical laboratory experiences at Centennial’s Morningside Campus, which features three state-of-the-art labs that include community dispensing, institution/long-term care and sterile preparations.

You’ll have the opportunity for three work experience placements. The program’s field placement partners help it to ensure CCAPP standards and pharmacy competencies are met by providing opportunities through which you’ll attain a minimum of 160 hours in each hospital/institutional and community pharmacy setting.

This School of Community and Health Studies program will also focus on inspiring you to embrace the philosophy of lifelong learning by pursuing the Regulated Pharmacy Technician designation. To practice as a pharmacy technician in Ontario, you’ll be required to complete the Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada exam and register with the Ontario College of Pharmacists according to its licensing requirements.

This course offers basic networking knowledge, understanding of fundamentals is very important to learn cybersecurity. The only thing I would ask centennial or course coordinator is to add compulsory CCNA or A+ certificate so that students can apply to better positions. The course coordinator and the professors are friendly and have very vast knowledge in their subjects.

I wanted to apply to Centennial College for the Digital Marketing programme.

But they don’t inform new students about the total fees before paying the deposit. They told "approximate fee" and they wanted me to pay a deposit ( 2.650 $) without knowing the total 1-year fee. They just want to have money, money, money!!! Students have a right to learn the exact final tuition fee before they register. They said that they would let me know until 22nd June 2020 but still there is no information. I sent an e-mail 3 times after 22nd June, they never answered my mail.

Moreover
After the pandemic, the Centennial college has just started to demand the whole tuition fee only from the international students until 6th July 2020 while they were taking the fee semester by semester before the pandemic.
They are not asking the whole fee from the domestic students.

Centennial does not be equal for all students in terms of the payment schedule. The epidemic has already affected to all international students. However, Centennial still does not inform students about Fall fees?

My suggestion is please be careful while you want to go to Centennial College. You should think more than twice if you don't want to go to a school which sees you only as money and doesn't respect your rights.
