Guest guest Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 It may interest you to note that one may not have a felony to apply for PTCB. Where as for ICPT's ExCPT now administred via NHA you can not have a felony in the last 5 years. Also it may interest you to know that PTCB via Person Vue testign will have electronic fingerpring scanning machines to see if you are who you say you are. It is possibly (implied) that the machine will check your background. I found a lot hidden on the site when a member of this site privately emailed me a question about 'deadlines', for which I never found the answer! But I found the following: Eligibility Requirements for Candidates Requirements: „h High school diploma or its equivalent (e.g., a GED or foreign diploma). „h No felony conviction. „h No drug or pharmacy related convictions, including misdemeanors. These violations must be disclosed to PTCB. „h No denial, suspension, revocation, or restriction of registration or licensure, consent order or other restriction by any State Board of Pharmacy. „h No admission of misconduct or violation of regulations of any State Board of Pharmacy. Note: „« PTCB will review denial of eligibility upon request on a case-by-case basis. If eligibility requirements are not met, a candidate may request a review under certain circumstances, e.g. if the non-drug related misconduct occurred longer than five (5) years ago or the individual is currently working under the Board of Pharmacy authority. „« PTCB reserves the right to investigate criminal background, verify candidate eligibility and deny certification to any individual. „« It is the responsibility of the CPhT to report any felony conviction, drug or pharmacy-related violations, or Board of Pharmacy action taken against their license or registration at the occurrence and at the time of recertification, for review by PTCB http://www.ptcb.org/AM/Template.cfm? Section=PTCB_Exam & Template=/CM/ContentDisplay.cfm & ContentID=4006 " Candidates who fail the PTCB Examination can retake the examination three times. After three retakes, candidates will need to appeal to PTCB and requests will be reviewed and approved on a case-by-case basis. For the first two retakes, candidates are required to wait 60 days before taking the examination again. For the third retake, candidates are required to wait 6 months before taking the examination again. " It used to be that you could take the exam as many times as you want but now ou need to appeal to PTCB IF you want to take it a third time. http://www.pearsonvue.com/sponsors/fingerprinting/ Hope this helps!
