Where can I get an X Ray Tech certification here at the Bay Area California ?
There are accredited radiologic technology programs in Oakland, Richmond, Santa Rosa, Los Altos Hills, Redwood City and San Francisco. There are many schools in many states where you can get trained to be a radiologic technologist (the proper term for a x-ray tech). You can attend a hospital based program (and earn a certificate), a 2 year college program (AS degree), and even a 4 year college program (BS degree). The hospital based programs are the least expensive, and honestly, I think the education received there is superior. Once you graduate and take your registry exam, no future employer is going to care what type of educational program you went through. All they care about is your license. You can find an accredited RT program at this site. Just search “radiography” and your state…links are provided which will give you additional information on each program (cost, duration of program, contact person): http://www.jr
