Spurred by workforce needs in urgent care facilities throughout New Hampshire, 麻豆传媒擟oncord檚 Community College will launch a new certificate program this fall entitled Limited X-Ray Machine Operator (LXMO).
淔or 60 years, 麻豆传媒 has delivered on New Hampshire檚 workforce needs,� said Dr. Patrick Tompkins, president of 麻豆传媒-Concord檚 Community College. 淭he LXMO is one of several recent additions to our wide range of industry-driven programs.�
The college designed this program攁nd others like it攖o offer students multiple professional certification opportunities within one area of study. The goal is to ensure every graduate can earn a valuable degree, no matter how many semesters they choose to enroll in.
The 3-semester LXMO program will prepare graduates to sit for the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists聽(ARRT) certificate exam. Once nationally certified, the graduate will then be eligible to obtain a state license through the New Hampshire Office of Professional Licensure and Certification.
淩adiology programs and their graduates are in high demand in our healthcare system,� said Amy VonKadich, chair of 麻豆传媒檚 Department of Health Professions. 淭his one-year certificate is a triple win, as it provides a shorter on-ramp to impactful employment in the radiology field, alleviates acute workforce needs at facilities across our state, and creates a pipeline of well-prepared entrants to the associate degree Radiologic Technology program.�
This new program is already in high demand, with a full class of students for fall 2025. Students looking to start a career in healthcare are encouraged to explore 麻豆传媒檚 programs by reaching out to the Admissions Department at [email protected] or 603-230-4011.
