Pharmacy Degree

The following are job descriptions and educational requirements for pharmacy-related professions:

Pharmacy aides - perform routine administrative duties, which include filling out paperwork, manning the front desk, and answering the telephones. Most pharmacies will hire individuals with high schools diplomas.
Pharmacy technicians - have similar duties as pharmacy aides, but are also responsible for preparing prescriptions under the supervision of a pharmacist. Most pharmacies prefer to hire individuals who have completed a pharmacy technician certificate program. In fact, many states only permit pharmacies to hire pharmacy technicians who have completed these programs.
Pharmacists - prepare medications, fill prescriptions, and discuss with patients how much medication they should take and how it will affect them. Aspiring pharmacists are required to earn a graduate degree known as the Pharm.D. Additionally, all potential pharmacists must pass the North American Pharmacist Licensure Exam, and every state has varying pharmacist licensing requirements.
