ARRT- licensed technologists are required to complete 24 Category ‘A’ or ‘A+’ credits within their 2 year biennium.

STATE LICENSING REQUIREMENTS – If your state is not listed below then your state does not have any additional licensing requirements that are separate from the ARRT (American Registry of Radiologic Technologists).

CALIFORNIA – Our courses meet the California continuing education credit requirement as long as the program subject matter relates to the application of x-ray to the human body, which may include x-ray administration, x-ray management, x-ray pathology, x-ray diagnosis, and x-ray quality control. However, subjects in MRI and ultrasound are not related to the application of x-ray to the human body. Therefore, we do not recommend using the following programs to satisfy California state requirements:

General & Vascular Ultrasound
Communication Skills for the Healthcare Professional
Legal & Ethical Issues for Health Professionals
Legal & Ethical Issues in Health Occupations
Stress Management
Ultrasound Secrets
Ultrasound Review in Abdomen & OB/GYN
Essentials of Sonography & Patient Care
