Certifications and Steps After Completion

Upon completing the program, students receive a Certificate of Completion and a Basic Life Support (BLS) certification card through the American Heart Association. During the program, students obtain a provisional radiology permit that allows them to take X-rays during their externship. School staff help students complete the Proficiency application and put them in touch with the state radiology department to manage the steps for the Radiation Health and Safety (RHS) exam and obtaining the Limited Radiographic License, a state term that restricts its use to the dental field.
