A pharmacy technician may obtain national certification. To obtain registration as a certified technician, the person must be certified by a national organization and have passed a pharmacy technician certification examination that is accredited by the National Commission for Certifying Agencies. Pharmacy technician national certification does not supplant the need for a licensed pharmacist to exercise control over the performance of a delegated function nor does national certification exempt the pharmacy technician from registration pursuant to this chapter.
