Cardiology Technician Proficiency Certificate (EKG)

Many imaging professions housed within Cardiology do not require the Radiologic Technologist (RT) certification as pre-requisite to certification. However, as a fundamental substitute, knowledge of heart anatomy, rhythm, and pathology are paramount for success in advanced careers in Cardiac Imaging, including Invasive Cardiology and Cardiac Sonography.

The Cardiographic Technician Certificate Program will consist of courses that prepare students for the Cardiac Credentialing International (CCI) certification in both Cardiographic Technician and Rhythm Analysis. 

• Human Anatomy and Physiology
• Rhythm Analysis
• Basic Cardiac Imaging
• Limited Patient Care and Assessment

No clinical education or hospital experience is provided during the program.
