I am going through the curriculum and having a hard time getting all the resources and links to work properly. I am working on workplace safety. Can anyone provide some working links they use for this topic?
Thank you

Pharmacy Internships

We had one student complete the process to be a certified pharmacy technician in training in order to be able to work in the pharmacy. This required an application process, a fee of $50.00, a background check and fingerprinting. The whole process to obtain this certificate took about a month, so plan accordingly. We are in Texas, but I do not think this changes state to state as I believe this is a national certification. My intern chose not to remain in the pharmacy but if they wanted to pursue a career in this direction, they have two years to study for the test to become officially certified. (It requires some fairly complex math skills.)

We also had one assist in that department. In addition to the list mentioned above, our facility uses a power washer to spray sidewalks and equipment that gets dirty and they trained one of interns to assist with that. Also, they would gather some of the outside trash out of the bins and check for any trash that was just in the yard.

Has anyone developed a nice professional looking brochure to hand out to business partners you are connecting with to educate them about Project SEARCH when you begin reaching out for employment options for interns?

I am wondering what all "chain" retail stores have been open to hosting an intern for an externship for your sites in the US. Every year, I have interns who would like retail experience. I find it is nice to mention when other areas have been open to the idea within the same corporation.
