In this week’s episode, RxMike discusses the backstory of BPTS (Board of Pharmacy Technician Specialties) and shares the compelling reasons that led to establishing it. As an independent initiative of the National Pharmacy Technician Association (NPTA), BPTS was launched in January 2022, offering advanced certifications and specialty certificates for pharmacy technicians. The main motivation behind starting BPTS was to increase the accessibility and affordability of credentials, empowering pharmacy technicians to advance their roles and careers while enhancing patient care and strengthening the pharmacy workforce. By providing a streamlined process, affordable exams, and dedicated support, BPTS aims to provide technicians with the recognition, respect, and compensation they deserve.
