Vascular Technology
30 CME/CEU/CPD CREDITS
Course Code - 014

The Vascular Technology course is designed:

as a Registry credentialing examination preparation course (RVT/CCI-RVS)
as a means for registrants to acquire 30 educational credits or units
as preparation for future employment in a modern Vascular Lab

Students preparing for the Registered Vascular Technologist (RVT) examination and the Non-Invasive Vascular Registry (CCI-RVS) examination will find the Vascular Technology course covers ALL ASPECTS OF VASCULAR TECHNOLOGY found on the current Registry Examination Content Outlines. No other textbook is required.

There is an open book assignment at the end of each module and an OPTIONAL final examination using the Registry Credentialing Examination format. Students keep their examination and find the feedback extremely useful in determining their strengths and weaknesses.
