Want to Add ARRT Credentials?
As your career progresses, you might be thinking about developing new skills and earning more credentials.
Because you’re already a Registered Technologist (R.T.), you’ve probably already completed an educational program and earned a credential using our primary eligibility pathway.
If so, you’re eligible to earn future credentials using the postprimary eligibility pathway.
What’s a Postprimary Eligibility Pathway?
Our postprimary eligibility pathway enables you to complete our structured education and clinical experience requirements while you’re working. You don’t need to enroll in a formal education program.
What Are the Prerequisites?
This chart shows the credentials you can earn using the postprimary eligibility pathway. It also displays which supporting disciplines (prerequisite credentials) you’ll need to earn before sitting for the new exam—and to maintain once you earn the new credential.
Before you can apply for certification and registration in a new discipline, you’ll need to complete our structured education and clinical experience requirements. Doing so helps you master the knowledge you’ll need to obtain your credential. The requirements apply to all candidates, regardless of your current position, title, or type of employment.
How Do I Document Procedures and Education?
Log in to your online ARRT account, then:
- Click on Complete Business.
- Under Manage Credentials, select Pursue Postprimary.
- Select the discipline you want to pursue.
- On the Overview page, review the instructions.
- Then check the box at the bottom of the page to start inputting data and submitting procedures for verification.
Once you’ve created a worksheet, your dashboard will provide quick access to information about the discipline(s) you’re pursuing through the postprimary eligibility pathway.
