Pharmacy Training

KbPort™ is passionate about pharmacy education. Become a part of Simplicity™ University™ and prepare learners for successful pharmacy careers. Our virtual, interactive experience includes engaging lessons with interactive tasks and immediate feedback.

Learn Pharmacy skills from our new in-depth, module-based product. KbPort™ Virtual Study™ includes interactive, self-paced, educational modules designed to  provide the knowledge-base required to enter the Pharmacy field.

Through the Virtual Study™ modules, learners are challenged to complete exercises and exams needed to either pursue national certification or enter the work force as entry-level pharmacy technicians.

KbPort™ Virtual Study™ offers two programs, the Pharmacy Technician Basic Program and the Pharmacy Technician Advanced Program (CPhT).

The Pharmacy Technician Basic Program blends key concepts and activities in a virtual learning environment, while the Pharmacy Technician Advanced Program (CPhT) separates key concepts by module and provides a virtual learning environment with instructional material, interactive exercises, and examinations.

Both Virtual Study™ programs are followed by completion of hands-on skills in a laboratory environment.

Programs support knowledge required for employment in a variety of Pharmacy settings, such as: Institutional/Hospital/LTC, Community, Clinic/Outpatient, Compounding Facilities, or Mail-order/Insurance.
