How You Display Your Credentials Matters

Show people that you’re proud to be a Registered Technologist (R.T.) or Registered Radiologist Assistant (R.R.A.). Use your credential properly on your resume, business cards, online profiles, and other areas.

Not sure of the correct abbreviation for your credential? We have you covered.

To use your credential properly, follow these examples:

• If you’re certified and registered with ARRT in one discipline, such as Radiography, your credential string should read: Your Name, R.T.(R)(ARRT).
• If you’re certified and registered in multiple disciplines, list them like this, usually in the order you earned them: Your Name, R.T.(R)(CT)(MR)(ARRT).
• If you’re a Registered Radiologist Assistant (R.R.A.), put that credential first. Then add any other ARRT credentials: Your Name, R.R.A., R.T.(R)(ARRT).

Don’t use periods in the credential string except after R.T. and R.R.A. Don’t add extra spaces anywhere in the string of letters that includes parentheses. And remember to include (ARRT) at the end of your string. That helps avoid confusion with credentials from any other source.
