Certificate & Degree Programs 2020-2021 to use electroneurodiagnostic techniques to evaluate activity of the brain, spinal cord and nervous system to perform electroencephalograms (EEGs), evoked potentials (EPs), and nerve conduction velocity studies (NCVs) in hospitals and other healthcare facilities. The program focuses on the general area of biomedical electronics with specific instruction in the theory and use of END instruments and factors influencing testing outcomes and reporting. Upon successful completion of the program, the student will be prepared to sit for the American Board of Registered Electroneurodiagnostic Technologists (ABRET) examination to become a Registered Electroneurodiagnostic Technologist (R. EEG T.). Program Notes: Students must earn a grade of C or better for all courses required within the program. Students may opt to transfer from the Electroneurodiagnostic (END) Technology to the Polysomnography program while in the first semester of the program. A seat in the Polysomnography program will be granted if there is no waitlist and Program Director approval is granted at the time of transfer. HCC courses may be taken prior to admission or concurrently during enrollment in the program. Admission Criteria: 1. Formal application can be made at any time. 2. Formal admission to the Electroneurodiagnostic (END) Technology or the Polysomnography program is required. 3. Background Check Requirements: Admission to an Allied Health program requires that students be in compliance with the Maricopa County Community College District Background Check standards. Upon conditional program enrollment, the student must comply with all requirements of the MCCCD background check policy. 4. Clinical Health and Safety requirements must be met. Upon conditional program enrollment, the student must comply with all requirements of the MCCCD clinical health and safety policy. 5. Inability to comply with Background Check requirements and/or Clinical Health and Safety requirements at the start of classes may result in cancellation of enrollment.
