How These Credits May Be Used
For ARRT Structured Education, applicable major content category credits may be used toward the Structured Education requirements for an eligible postprimary credential.
For ARRT CQR, applicable credit distributions may be used toward an individual’s prescribed CE requirements based on their personalized CQR prescription.
The course’s 24 Category A CE credits may also be applied toward applicable biennial continuing education requirements.
Important: Credit applicability varies by discipline and individual requirements. This course does not necessarily fulfill the complete Structured Education requirement for every credential. Participants should review their individual ARRT requirements to determine how these credits apply to them.
For CT specifically, this course provides 1.0 Patient Care credit and 20.0 Procedures credits toward applicable Structured Education requirements. Additional qualifying credits in Safety and Image Production are required to complete the full ARRT CT Structured Education requirement.
