Hello i have a question. I am pharmacy assistant and planning to apply for pharmacy technical assistant. I have not done pharmacy technician course. So is it still possible for me to apply for it or they ask for technician background? My responsibilities are same as technician
For ALL who was wondering about the technical legality of Using NOC 3219 and working as a Pharmacy Assistant, I want to post my experience here.
I know how confused I was before starting the Process, as I did not have registration as Pharmacy Technician. Applied as CEC and Just got my PR.
I got my PR while working as Pharmacy Assistant, in my case I had already cleared the PEBC EE exam and was registered with the Provincial College of the pharmacist as an International Pharmacy Graduate. I uploaded that along with my PR application.
In addition, as mentioned in this forum it's the duties that count. Make sure you do NOT include and patient care or Regulated duties in your experience letter (Eg: Rx Check or Patient Counseling), while you can include other non-regulated duties that you perform day to day in a pharmacy.
I got the letter from the Pharmacy Manager, a Couple of pay stubs, T4, the pre-registration letter from Collge, and that it. I did Not add any LOE.
Just keep your application simple.
This is only my experience upon applying while working as Pharmacy Assistant. If you have a technician's License then it's a totally different case..
Good luck everyone.. hope my experience helps you. GOd bless..
