CLINICAL LABORATORY SCIENCE ARTICULATION PROGRAM FOR MEDICAL LABORATORY TECHNICIANS WISHING TO PURSUE A B.S. IN MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY


Philosophy Statement


The faculty of the Clinical Laboratory Sciences Division encourages and supports continuing professional growth. Progression from Medical Laboratory Technician (MLT) to Medical Technologist (MT) is one method of demonstrating professional growth in clinical laboratory sciences. The faculty recognizes that the skills and knowledge possessed by a Medical Technologist include the competencies of the Medical Laboratory Technician. Additionally, the faculty recognizes that prerequisite knowledge and skills may be attained by mechanisms other than the traditional classroom approach. The CLS Articulation Program was developed to facilitate the professional progression from MLT to MT. For most MLT graduates, the articulation program takes 2 years to complete as a full time student.
