What reviewers say

AI generated

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers praise the well-organized online format that breaks down difficult concepts into simple, digestible sections and allows learners to work comfortably at their own individual pace. Consumers frequently mention the helpful practice questions, engaging audio narration, and thorough study materials that effectively prepare them for their certification exams. However, some reviewers noted that the sheer volume of covered material could occasionally feel excessive or overwhelming for beginners trying to grasp everything. A few participants also pointed out minor navigational details or small audio errors that could be improved for an even smoother learning journey.

What people say

It was a good experience

It was a good experience, want to add that the time limit should be holded or paused on a website if a student gets caught into something that occupies the whole day and when can't study during that time. Like I got busy with things right after I enrolled for the course and requested if we can hold the course time duration to get back on my studies

Thank you for taking the time to leave this review, Aisha. We do strive to provide support to our students, and we regret that we could not provide you with a 5-star experience!

Amazing program compared to others.

I originally took the PTU 101 program (which was very expensive), and I still felt I needed some extra review before taking the PTCE exam so I decided to take this program for a final review to help me study. This course actually ended up being more helpful and beneficial than the expensive program I took, especially the Top 300 Drug part. I love that there is both an activity portion to listen and learn, plus a whole chapter on the subject to read - which the other program did not provide. I have come to learn, I retrain information better with both listening AND reading so this was beyond useful and helpful. I would highly recommend this course!

An exceptionally thorough prep course

This course was an excellent, thorough preparation for the PTCE. I appreciated how the information was chunked into smaller, more digestible sections, making it easy to gradually learn the material. The supplemental readings from books in the APhA library (included as part of the course) were incredibly helpful and informative, adding additional depth and information to the already comprehensive lectures. By the end of the course, I felt very prepared to take and pass the PTCE. I would highly recommend anyone preparing for the PTCE to take this course. You will be very pleased in your investment.

Excellent Program for Future Pharmacy Techs!

I had a great experience with Pharmacy Tech Scholar! The lessons are clear, easy to follow, and very practical. Their support team is also super helpful whenever I had questions. I feel much more confident about starting my pharmacy tech career now.

Thank you so much for the great review, Raz!

Organized, Efficient, Great Value!…

Great course for multiple types of learners. Audio modules, reading and quizzes help students to gauge their learning. Helpful study tips are provided; virtual class videos are now being uploaded to resource section so students can view anytime. Information is well organized and thorough. The final exam for course completion can be taken over and over pulling from 1000s of practice bank questions to prepare students for the PCTE. Highly recommend this course; especially if you are new to healthcare!

Thank you very much for the thorough and excellent review, Danyelle!

This is a great training program

This is a great training program! The material is presented in an easy accessible form, but at the same time very informative. It is very interesting to learn with you! Thank you very much.

Thank you very much for the great review, Nati!

Simple and Informative

While I haven't taken the PTCE yet as I'm just finishing the course, these lessons were very informative while still being very easy to digest. I prefer learning from visual mediums, so having the bulk of the course be in slideshows that often showed categories separated by colored text boxes was perfect for me. I do wish that some of the required readings were as "user-friendly" as, despite a few exceptions, they were often big blocks of text. I do recognize however, that this is due to the required readings being created by different authors who formatted it more as a textbook. Though it would be a larger task, having an expanded section to help break down these required readings could be beneficial. I also wish there was a way to view old test scores after the fact, since once I navigated away from the page, I would have to retake the test all over with no history to previous scores. I do very much appreciate the sections given on missed questions that explain the correct answer, however. One last thing that I would've loved to have was a way to save the slideshows from the lessons to have offline. I'm in an area with very spotty internet, and it was often disheartening to have times where I was unable to access the material, as the Google Drive files were set to be unable to save offline. I would've liked to be able to save the slideshows and refer back to them for notes more freely. That all being said, everything else was well organized and easy to learn from. I appreciate Dr. Emmel consistently taking the time to send a message as I completed modules, asking if there was anything I needed and offering to help with any questions and study preparations. Thank you for helping provide this opportunity.

Kris, thank you so much for taking the time to leave this detailed review! These are the types of reviews that help us deliver a better experience for our students. We appreciate your feedback about the required readings. In our new platform that we recently launched, the readings are now embedded in the learning page, starting at the actual section matching the reading for the module. Hopefully this will improve the experience somewhat. We also have an improved exam interface, and users can now revisit prior exam attempts, see their scores, and read the feedback about their answer choices. We also no longer use Google Drive for our resources as everything is embedded in the Learning Management System. We will keep improving! Thanks again for the 5-stars and for your help. Sincerely, Aaron Emmel

Easy to understand, tailored to your experience

Thank you Jay, we are glad you enjoyed the program!

Great Program, I learned so much!!!!!!

This program was amazing and I learned a great deal of information. I really enjoyed the extra readings and required readings, the flashcards, the slides, and the activities. I would recommend having an option to print the flashcards for easy studying and being able to print the slides for easy studying as well. Also, maybe having a payment plan if the price is alittle steep for some people and maybe purchasing a month by month renewal if you need more time to complete the program, instead of having to purchase another whole six months. Overall, the program was great and I had a great experinece learning new and old information. I would definitely do this program again if I ever needed to and I loved that the instructor kept in contact with me throughout the whole program.

Thank you very much for the great feedback Brittany, we really appreciate the input!

Great experience and worth the cost

I was going through a training program and fairly near completion when the national chain I worked at went out of buiness. Most of my training has been hands on, and little time was allowed to get through coursework. While I had the necessary hours worked to apply for the national exam, I did not feel ready to take it. I chose to start this program to help gain the knowledge I was missing to pass the test. And in my state, this course meets the requirement to apply for the exam, so I did not need to prove I had worked the necessary hours. Working at my own pace has been helpful, and I was able to gain a position at an independent pharmacy at a higher starting wage since they didn't have to pay for coursework. Overall I am happy with the decision to take this course.
