  • "As a Graduated Certified Pharmacy Technician (2018 - 2019), I can see that Osceola Technical College has been an amazing investment toward my future. They have helped me grow and decide what my true calling is in life, to be a pharmacy technician. The resources are outstanding at this school. Our instructor Ms. Brown has created a positive environment, detailed and hands-on training, with valuable information. This class gave us a realistic understanding of our responsibility as a pharmacy technician. I am so grateful to have gotten my RPhT and CPhT because of Osceola Technical College."
