Who Should Take This Course:
The Injections Training Certificate Program for Pharmacy Technicians is a two-part series designed to support pharmacy technicians in the administration of injections for Covid-19, influenza, and RSV injections (in defined conditions) in Ontario.
This course is restricted to pharmacy technician students. Not a pharmacy technician student? Pharmacy technicians can enroll here.
Please note that participants who achieve a letter of completion may state that they hold a continuing education certificate in the Injection Training Certificate Program for Pharmacy Technicians. This does not grant authority to administer injections as such authority is granted by legislation through each healthcare professional’s own regulatory college.
