View course outline ยป

This course will examine various drug distribution systems in pharmacy practice, and prepare learners to effectively manage operations in different practice settings to ensure safe and effective drug supply and distribution. Learners will explore distributive functions in institutional settings, as well as common drug plans and their formularies, adjudication challenges, inventory management elements and common business practices. Accurate product release within the parameters of the pharmacy technician role receives special emphasis. Note: There will be a structured practical evaluation following this course (and managed by CPBC) to verify the learners ability to consistently perform accurate product release in the workplace (independent double check).
