The goal of the Histotechnician Program is to help
students develop the clinical competencies, technical knowledge and
attitudes that are required of a laboratory professional. The program is
designed to help students in their development with technical abilities and
knowledge as well as written, verbal and non-verbal communication skills
which are equally as important as technical skills. Honesty, empathy, and
integrity are essential qualities that every healthcare professional must
practice. The coordination of lectures and laboratory experience reinforces
the learning process and prepares students for a career in histotechnology.
The Histotechnician Program is designed for full time students and is
accredited by the National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory
Sciences (NAACLS). The students will take approximately three semesters, or
one full calendar year, to complete the program.
