Our Mission

Our PTCB-recognized program prepares students to pass the Pharmacy Technician Certification Exam (PTCE) and launch rewarding careers in healthcare.
Our Story
Founded by Keith Hunt, RPh, this program was born from over three decades of pharmacy experience and a passion for teaching. After spending 5 years training pharmacy technician students at Isothermal Community College, Keith saw the need for a flexible, online training option that could reach students who couldn't attend traditional classroom programs.
Foothills Pharmacy Tech combines the rigor of college-level instruction with the convenience of online learning, using the same curriculum materials trusted by accredited colleges nationwide.
