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

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.
