Although technician certification provides a national standard for credentialing, not all states require it, making certification a voluntary process for technicians or the organizations employing them. As the role of the pharmacist has evolved, the need for highly trained pharmacy technicians has grown. The pharmacy technician\u2019s expanded role in specialized areas of pharmacy practice has created new opportunities that require advanced training.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Summary<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Research is lacking on return on investment for workforce development programs, making it difficult to advocate for pharmacy technician training programs. Therefore, it is important to create internal metrics that link one\u2019s program to business performance. This begins with conducting a job market analysis for the geographic area. It is imperative to identify the current occupational outlook for pharmacy technicians, identifying areas with potential for growth as well as where there are shortages or high turnover. Successful development of an American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP) and Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE)\u2013accredited pharmacy technician program requires a long-term strategy to address key market issues as well as social and economic barriers and financial data to secure funding.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>This case study details Yale New Haven Hospital\u2019s journey from proof of concept to implementation of an ASHP-ACPE\u2013accredited pharmacy technician training program.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/ajhp\/zxab242","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,9]],"date-time":"2021-06-09T12:08:32Z","timestamp":1623240512000},"page":"179-186","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Pharmacy technicians, supporting our past, shaping our future: Implementing an ASHP-ACPE\u2013accredited pharmacy technician training program in an academic medical center"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"79","author":[{"given":"Mariel C","family":"Pereda","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmacy Services, Yale New Haven Hospital, New Haven, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David","family":"Goffman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmacy Services, Bridgeport Hospital, Bridgeport, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sharee\u2019","family":"Parker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmacy Services, Yale New Haven Hospital, New Haven, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nigjar","family":"Polat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmacy Services, Yale New Haven Hospital, New Haven, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Janet M","family":"Kozakiewicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmacy Services, Yale New Haven Hospital, New Haven, CT, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,6,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"2022012512170831900_CIT0001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1720","DOI":"10.1093\/ajhp\/50.8.1720","article-title":"ASHP statement on pharmaceutical care","volume":"50","author":"American Society of Health-System Pharmacists","year":"1993","journal-title":"Am J Health-Syst Pharm"},{"key":"2022012512170831900_CIT0002","author":"Pharmacy Technician Certification Board"},{"issue":"12","key":"2022012512170831900_CIT0003","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1074","DOI":"10.2146\/ajhp100536","article-title":"New practitioners and the pharmacy practice model initiative: our opportunity to define the future","volume":"68","author":"Hertig","year":"2011","journal-title":"Am J Health-Syst Pharm"},{"issue":"2","key":"2022012512170831900_CIT0004","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"113","DOI":"10.1093\/ajhp\/zxz271","article-title":"ASHP Practice Advancement Initiative 2030: new recommendations for advancing pharmacy practice in health systems","volume":"77","author":"American Society of Health-System Pharmacists","year":"2020","journal-title":"Am J Health-Syst Pharm"},{"key":"2022012512170831900_CIT0005","author":"Bureau of Labor Statistics"},{"key":"2022012512170831900_CIT0006","author":"US News & World Report"},{"key":"2022012512170831900_CIT0007","author":"Bersin","year":"2013"},{"key":"2022012512170831900_CIT0008","author":"Barton","year":"2013"},{"key":"2022012512170831900_CIT0009","author":"Glasmeier"},{"key":"2022012512170831900_CIT0010","author":"American Society of Health-System Pharmacists"},{"key":"2022012512170831900_CIT0011","author":"Office"},{"key":"2022012512170831900_CIT0012","author":"Pharmacy Technician Certification Board"},{"key":"2022012512170831900_CIT0013","volume-title":"Model Curriculum for Pharmacy Technician Education and Training Programs.","author":"American Society of Health-System Pharmacists and Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education","year":"2018","edition":"5th ed"},{"key":"2022012512170831900_CIT0014","author":"American Society of Health-System Pharmacists and Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education.
