State Registration
Registration with the Board of Pharmacy in the state in which you wish to work is a prerequisite for employment in most states.Most states also require this for technicians to maintain employment in their state. It is simple and easy to do. You can check out my page on
State Boards here.
If your particular state is not listed yet, you can try googling your state and “board of pharmacy.” The government website should come up listed in the search engine results. Some states allow you to download and print out a .pdf document, fill it out and mail it in. Usually the boards require a fee, and you should enclose this with the form when you mail it in.

Your next step, if you are not yet employed, is to find a job. Visit the Job Boards to search employment opportunities.Check
