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 all 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. Next, find a job!
Your next step, if you are not yet employed, is to find a job.
Check out my page on Becoming a Pharmacy Technician for my personal recommendations for preparing for your future career.
Your Career Change and Career Tools HQ are two websites with lots of relevant content. There is more information about both websites, as well as links to both of them at the page listed below.
