APPLICATIONS FACILITY TRAINING
As an R.T., you’ll probably have chances to attend training from medical equipment vendors. When this type of training takes place on-site at your facility, we call it "applications facility training." In such training, you learn how to use new types of medical imaging and radiation therapy equipment.
Currently, applications facility training can count toward the following, with limits on how many facility applications training credits you can use:
- Continuing education (CE) for biennial CE
- Prescribed CE as a result of Continuing Qualifications Requirements (CQR)*
- Structured education if you’re working toward an additional ARRT credential*
* Please note: As of Jan. 1, 2024, ARRT will accept applications facility training for biennial CE only.
LIMITS ON APPLICATIONS FACILITY TRAINING CREDITS
You can apply no more than eight (8) Category A credits of facility applications training to:
- Your CE requirement each biennium
- Prescribed education for any CQR compliance period
- Structured education for any new credential
These limits apply no matter how many units of CE the vendor gives you.
