What is the primary credential offered by PTCB?

The Certified Pharmacy Technician (CPhT).

PTCB certifies pharmacy technicians, and the credential it offers is the Certified Pharmacy Technician, abbreviated CPhT. This credential verifies that a technician has the knowledge and skills to support pharmacists, handle dispensing tasks, and contribute to patient safety in various pharmacy settings. Pharmacists themselves have a Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) and may pursue other certifications not issued by PTCB, while the other listed titles do not represent the credential PTCB provides. Maintaining the CPhT typically involves renewal and continuing education.
