Radiology Tech School in Vermont - VT

Continuing education impacts a registered radiology technician’s ability to remain registered. Both the ARRT and the NMCTB require submission of a recertification application each year. In addition, every other year of recertification, radiology technician must also provide documentation of twenty-four hours dedicated to continuing education. Failure to comply with continuing education standards will result in certification suspension. Without active registry, radiology technicians lose state licensure and the privilege of practicing in Vermont. All CE credits must be radiology based and ARRT or NMCTB approved. CE opportunities may include:

• Training conferences
• Professional lectures
• Online educational testing
• Home study
• Volunteer activities
• Industry seminars

Another way radiology technicians can gain CE credit and gain career advancement is through supplementary certification in specialized disciplines. By earning specialization certifications radiology technicians increase job opportunities, job security and salary outlooks. Some areas of specialization include:

• Computerized tomography (CT) scanning
• Breast imaging
• Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
• Nuclear medicine
