California college graduate interested in Rad Tech career. Where do I begin?

By

I have a degree in biomedical science and minor in chemistry. My undergrad GPA was not great, so I was somewhat limited in terms of what I could do, but I've always been interested in medical technology related careers.

In the area I live in, a community College (Los Rios system) is offering a rad tech program for CT/MRI/VIR, but they require me to be certified as a radiologic technologist in my state. I looked this up and it lead me to ARRT's certification exams, and now I'm confused. There seem to be multiple different exams so I'm not sure what to do from here. Am I assuming correctly that I only need to study for and take the Radiography Exam? Or do I have to take an exam for every listed subject (Radiation therapy, Mammography, etc.)?

Any advice on taking the first steps would be highly appreciated.

Onetonline salary search change?

Did this change? I am having a hard time finding the same lists I saw 2 months ago. https://www.onetonline.org/link/summary/29-2034.00#AdditionalInformation https://www.onetonline.org/link/localwages/29-2034.00?st=OR&p=hourly I used to be able to see wage by area and sort it by state and see the differences per state and per city in every state. I can't seem to find this same list anymore. I can see a bell curve but I can't sort by state or wage or anything. Thanks! submitted by /u/xxDamnationxx [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/h9oqup/onetonline_salary_search_change/

Radiology program

By
I’m from New York looking to attend a Rad tech program. I work for Northwell and recently came across a flyer for John Patrick University. it is an online AS program with clinicals in person (which my job will allow me to do) It seems as if this program is not accredited by JCERT but the school is accredited by ACCSC. I reached out to the director of the school and also the arrt and they say that there would be no issue taking boards. I haven’t really heard of anyone going through online program so I wanted to make sure everything checks out. Since this was being advertised at work I couldn’t see why they would put something that wouldn’t be accepted out.
