Does a pharmacy technician make more when they receive their associates?

I am graduating from the pharmacy tech program but I have been thinking about going for my associates. It is an extra 35 credit hours that I need to complete before I can get that. But if it isn’t worth the tuition then I might just stay at the certification.

    Depends on the company. Most likely you will make substantially more but it all depends on the company you work for. Some companies pay for more education while others look more at your experience rather than education.

    A Pharmacist Technician makes atleast $100,000+ the year they come out of college. CVS and other places hire you then so going for more college might pay off in the long run, for the money the years working for a major manufacturer, Pfizer, Bristol Myers Squib, and Cardinal. Private companies like online pharmacies and CVS, Wal-greens, and Supermarket Drugstores.
