Phlebotomy or Pharmacy Technician? Which is a better Career Path in California?

We Answered:

My vote is for pharmacy technician. In California you can become a pharmacy technician by obtaining your national certification, see http://www.pharmacytechnicianhq.com/ for details on how to do this. In addition, many pharmacy technician positions will open up over the summer at the beginning (when people graduate and move on to their degree field) and at the end (when people get into their degree of choice, like pharmacy school or med school). One thing to think about is what you want to do after this. Does either position offer you more advantage in your next career option?

My sister is going to enroll at American Career College for training on Pharmacy Technician?

We Answered:

I have never been there but you could go on the website and check it out. Also,if she wants to be a Pharmacy Tech she might look at getting a job with a pharmacy like Walgreen's and they will send you to school while you work for you to get your certification. Only thing is you have to work for them for two years or you have to pay them back. Just something you might look into. I was going for that and then I decided to do Medical Coding and Billing.

I am thinking about enrolling in the Pharmacy Technician program at Western Career College. Feedback anyone?

We Answered:

I agree 100% with the prevoius poster, the pharmacy tech program is a certification, not a degree. You should shop around for another pharmacy tech program.
