EDUCATION

Clinical Laboratory Scientist trains a new student in the techniques of analysis for infectious mononucleosis.

Medical technologists who wish to be more involved in education will seek advanced education. They are often responsible for orientation/training of new laboratory employees and other health care employees who interact with the laboratory. In addition to teaching, evaluation of learned competencies (knowledge and skills) must be performed periodically. The medical technologist involved in education prepares practical and written exams for employees. Medical technologists teach medical technology students in clinical practice in the clinical laboratory and may also serve as lecturers or consultants in an academic setting.
