Anyone know of any SOutheastern tech schools specializing in radiology tech programs?

[Joe Donaldson]

I would like to change careers (have BS, MBA) to healthcare, perhaps
someone can assist.

Does anyone know of any programs in the North
Carolina(Charlotte)/South Carolina area that offer a Radiology Tech
program?

I have no clue how long a program might be, how expensive, and how
much one can earn the first and second year.

Thanks for any assistance.

Suggest you contact:

www.asrt.org and www.arrt.org as they are good places to start.

With that background you may be able to enter into a radiology extender
program. Suggest inquiries to the above and to www.acr.org

Good luck.

Most of the programs are at Community Colleges, although there are a
few hospital based programs out there. A very few 4 year programs.
CC programs are a combination of classroom & clinicals in local
hospitals & free standing centers. They run 2 years continuous
including summers. (Only breaks are the end of semesters, spring,
Holdiay etc). Once you complete the course of study, you take the
national board (ARRT) exam. Even if your state does not require the
exam (Nevada for example), it is required to work in acredited
facilities so it's best to take it regardless.

This next one is a free publication. I think they ran a compensation
study a while back. It may be on their website.
