1)Lory is my best friend. She has a two months old baby girl. [Ok.]
2)She decided to take English courses to become eligible for {the} Pharmacy Technician Course's requirements. [If "Pharmacy Technician Course" is the official name of a course listed that way in the college's literature, it can be capitalized.
