October 21, 2025 is World Pharmacy Technician Day
It’s a day to recognize, appreciate, and celebrate the vital contributions that pharmacy technicians make every single day. While others might see you as “just a tech,” we know you are so much more. You are the unsung heroes of healthcare—supporting pharmacists, protecting patients, and keeping the entire system running smoothly.This year, NPTA continues our mission to shift the narrative. For too long, pharmacy technicians have been overlooked or undervalued. But your work is essential, your impact is undeniable, and your role deserves the spotlight.
…but shining a spotlight isn’t just about recognition—it’s about respect. It’s about showing the world the skill, dedication, and heart that pharmacy technicians bring to every shift, every prescription, and every patient. When we highlight the real value of technicians, we aren’t just celebrating individuals—we’re strengthening the entire profession.

And on October 21st, we celebrate you—not only for what you do, but for who you are.
