Certified technicians who want to move up the career ladder may have a new

option open to them in the future. The Pharmacy Technician Certification Board

is considering setting up a certification program in IV admixture, now that

the U.S. Pharmacopeia has finalized its Chapter 797 clean room standards. That

’s one thing Murer Corrigan, CEO of PTCB, revealed at the ASHP

midyear meeting in Las Vegas. Another plan PTCB is mulling is to offer

continuous

certification testing, rather than holding tests only on certain days, she

added. This will offer technicians greater convenience in taking the test.
