“Northwest Suburban College is a career college providing the needed education and skills to secure a job and build a career. It is a great path into the medical field.
I greatly appreciate the opportunity to receive institutional aid from the school. This was a difference maker for me in being able to quickly start my path to a new career.”
As long as you are willing to put in the work, this program will set you up for success. The school, the administration, and all staff were extremely professional and helpful at all times.

In my experience at Northwest Suburban College, the Pharmacy Technician track focuses on education, knowing the names of common drugs, their purposes, and potential drug interactions. There are also practical labs, teaching how to use common pharmacy software, mixing drugs, or simply familiarizing oneself with where information is written on a bottle, such as NDC. The course is broad, which allows students to understand the general and underlying works of pharmacy, which are relevant for all pharmacies, and opens the door for more specificity later on. I have definitely benefited from this, both in my technician externship, and in my pharmacy technician role.
