The first student of the month for 2016, is Thi Thu Tuan Nguyen from Epic Pharmacy in Greenslopes!
Trainer and Assessor, Linden Pirrone has been working with Thi on her Certificate III in Community Pharmacy and has been impressed with Thi’s ambition and passion for pharmacy.
Thi was a pharmacist in her home country, The Netherlands. But was unable to qualify here in Australia. Even with that hurdle, she was keen to obtain a formal qualification in her area of expertise, so she took advantage of the Certificate 3 Guarantee and started working towards her goal.
Anne Lewis, Thi’s supervisor, is very supportive of her willingness to obtain formal qualifications and is proud of her achievements so far!
