I am always interested in continuing education in the areas of health, wellness, nutrition and mental health. Your course was well written, well organized and helpful in meeting state licensure requirements.

I appreciate the convenience of the course being online and accessible through my phone and that it directly reports to CEBroker to support mandated education requirements.

I really loved this information. I was hospitalized last year for almost a month and I noticed multiple medical errors (not being hooked up to my IV multiple times, given wrong medication which caused my sodium to be very low, etc.) which lengthened my stay. I can now define those exact errors and better understand what happened to me. I hate that these medical errors are so common and I appreciate how well laid out your breakdown and categorization of them was.

Additional information

Michigan Pharmacy Technician Standard Renewal Requirements

Pharmacy technicians in Michigan must renew their state license every two years and complete a total of 20 hours of CE, including specific hourly requirements for pain & symptom management, patient safety, and pharmacy law/ethics. At least 5 hours must be live and direct-interaction programs, while the remaining 17 hours may be electives from approved pharmacy topics. Alternatively, passing a board-approved exam (PTCB, NHA, Michigan employer-based) may meet renewal requirements. Visit the official Michigan Board of Pharmacy Licensing Guide for details.

***

First-time renewal: If this is your first renewal after June 1, 2022, you are only required to complete 1 hour of implicit bias training for each year since June 1, 2021. Pharmacy Technician Licensing Guide

***

Certification alternative (e.g., Board-certified pharmacotherapy specialist): Pharmacy technicians may satisfy renewal by passing a proficiency examination from PTCB, NHA, or an approved Michigan employer-based program. Pharmacy Technician Licensing Guide

***

Sterile or non-sterile compounding: Elective hours may include compounding or sterile product preparation, but there is no mandatory compounding requirement. Pharmacy Technician Licensing Guide

***

Human trafficking / abuse recognition: One-time completion of human trafficking training is required before first licensure or renewal; it does not need to be repeated each cycle. Pharmacy Technician Licensing Guide
