(La Porte, IN) - The La Porte School Corporation is becoming a training ground for pharmacy technicians.

 

Registration is now open to begin an in-person Pharmacy Technician Training Program through a partnership between the School Corporation and Indiana University at South Bend.

 

School officials said the short-term training program will prepare students to sit for the Certified Pharmacy Technician Exam. Students who pass the national exam become Certified Pharmacy Technicians (CPhT).

 

Evening classes will start on March 16th and take place on Mondays and Thursdays at the Educational Services Center inside the former Boston Middle School building.  The classes will run through the beginning of June.

 

“This would be a great opportunity for high school seniors looking to go into the medical field or anyone with a high school diploma interested in a career as a Certified Pharmacy Technician,” school officials said.
