The State of Illinois requires a pharmacy technician license prior to the beginning of the internships. The program coordinator will provide the application for a pharmacy technician license at the appropriate time. Please note that it takes approximately eight weeks to receive this license from the State. Due to the nature of internships, most assignments are for the daytime shifts. Internship assignments are at the discretion of the program coordinator.
Students are responsible for transportation to and from the internship sites.
