you can just take the test if you are working, in a pharmacy for example.....that's what I did. I was working at Walgreens..and they paid for the test. I didn't take any classes...but they gave me some information to review...
FYI: it's not a high paying job if you are considering this as a career....retail you'll probably make about $10/hr certified..and in a hospital...maybe 12-14.

If by x-ray tech, you mean radiological tech- by far a rad tech makes more. An x-ray tech certification usually does not qualify you as a rad tech, but just to do x-rays at a dentist or docs office. You need a 2 year degree for a rad tech. If looking at just certifications, a pharmacy tech would probably make more

I took a corespondent course, cheaper then college ($1200) and I could do everything on line. So I continued to work full-time and do my studies, some companies do certify their techs but I don't think it's equivalent to schooling...good luck Oh you could always contact CAPT (Canadian association of pharmacy technician), they might be able to direct you in some of your questions

I believe its like a one year class and then you're able to take the test.
