Jane is close to graduating from UMA’s pharmacy technician training program and has started looking at pharmacy tech job postings. During her search, she noticed that many job applications ask for applicants to list typical credentials, such as a pharmacy technician degree (like the one she’ll receive upon graduating from UMA), a registered pharmacy technician state license, work history, and certifications. Jane also notices that job postings ask the applicant to list memberships to professional organization(s) (such as the ones found in your week 1 reading and this week's assignment). 1.)Identify a professional association/organization and explain possible benefits that you may gain from joining. Hint: Refer to the assigned reading in your first week of the course, Chapter 2 in The Pharmacy Technician: A Comprehensive Approach reading and this week's assignment to explore different pharmacy organizations. Be sure to state the full name of the organization and not just its acronym.
2.)Describe one drawback that you (or someone like Jane) might have from deciding to join a professional association/organization.
3.)Convince someone who works in a state that doesn’t require PTCB certification why they might want to consider getting certified anyway.
