Most community colleges and junior colleges offer programs leading to certification as a Radiologic Technologist. Then once you are working in that field your employer will often arrange and finance your training in specialties such as MRI, CT, PET or interventional radiological subspecialties.
i live in southern cali and am looking into going to school at west coast ultrasound institute for either ultrasound or MRI. is it true if that if u go to school only for MRI then u can only get a job at an image center not a hospital?
Respertory therapy is probaly the fastest growing job. RT also has the quickest course load to graduate. CV is probalythe highest paying
I am going back to school this summer, but really havent decided a career. i am 26 with 2 kids and 2 stepkids, going to school for a low paying job is not realistic for me. I have to concider daycare being so expensive, and with local schools, I dont have alot to choose from. I never would of thought about radiology but now it’s what i’ve got my heart set on. What exactly does this career involve. I like hands on jobs, I couldnt imagine sitting all day doing the exact same thing over and over. Another thing is I can’t stand difficult math, (calculus, hard algebra) is this something I would have to do everyday? Please respond if this is the path you have chosen and let me know anything and everything about your job! Thanks so much!
