The Pharmacy Technician Society was built out of the foundation of ASHP’s Pharmacy Technician Forum founded in 2018. Priorities from the forum group will be transitioned to the new society and members will also automatically become members of the newly formed group as well.
The ASHP cited a projected growth of 5 percent between 2021 and 2023 in the pharmacist technician profession, per statistics from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, as a key reason for its impetus to further build upon this initiative, according to a May 17 press release.
