Q. Hi, I was wondering what were the different ways an individual could take in becoming an Ultrasound Technician. I heard that you could go through an unaccredited program or school but as long as you have at least one year worth of experience you could be eligible to take the exam. I know you could go through a technical/vocational school for training but I was wondering what other methods could be used just to get things straighten out. Thanks!

A. You CAN go through an non-accredited program, but that means you have to find someone who is willing to hire you without being Registered. The best option is to go through a CAAHEP accredited program, that way you are eligible to take your boards right after graduating. That is what employers are looking for - Registered Sonographers. And as long as the program is accredited, it doesn't really matter what type of degree it is (certificate/associate's/ bachelor's). You wouldn't want to waste your time and money on a non-accredited program, and then be unable to find a job. It just is not worth it.
