According to ACPE, yes. Ultimately each state board makes the decision whether or not to accept pharmacist accredited courses for pharmacy technicians. “It is appropriate to distribute ACPE Statements of Credit with a ‘P’ designation to pharmacy technicians. It would be up to the pharmacy technician’s recertification agency or state board to determine if the ‘P’ credit is acceptable towards renewal.” -ACPE Continuing Pharmacy Education Provider eUpdate, February 2008.
