WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO EARN YOUR CERTIFICATION AS A EKG TECHNICIAN?

Through the EKG Technician Program, you are eligible for the EKG Technician (CET) Certification. Certification candidates must be 18 years of age or older and possess a high school diploma or equivalent.

Upon completion of this program, students wishing to sit for the Certified EKG Technician exam will be required to complete a minimum of 10 EKGs on a live person. Southern Adventist University cannot guarantee a site to complete this clinical requirement, so only students employed in a healthcare facility or those that take full responsibility for meeting their clinical requirements will be admitted to the program.

The CET certification ensures that you are ready to excel as an EKG Technician.
