Yes! According to the department of labor, "Employment is expected to increase much faster than the average, and job opportunities are expected to be good."

Depending on your states requirements, you may either need to take some training, take a certification exam or no requirements at all. To check your state's requirements, go to http://careerstep.com/courses/pharmacy-t… and click on FAQ #4. If you do end up needing to go through training because your state requires it, look into Career Step. They have an excellent pharmacy technician training course that is all online and self paced. They even have a demo of their course so you can see what info they cover as well as how it is all laid out. http://careerstep.com/demo/?uid=ref11431 It is really in-depth and it was designed to prepare graduates to work in a pharmacy and pass the PTCB exam
