FAQ

Why is it that other programs giving the same certification are longer than your 3-day course?

The NHA (National Healthcareer Association) does not have a set minimum number of hours for EKG Technician programs. However, individual training centers can establish their own minimum hour requirements based on their curriculum.

At our center, we require online pre-course work to be completed before the in-person class. This allows students to learn much of the foundational material ahead of time, before the 3-day course. As a result, our program’s total in-person hours are shorter compared to others but still provide all the necessary knowledge and hands-on skills required to succeed.

We require students to prepare before the first day of class. Upon enrollment, you will receive access to an online study account, which includes a study guide, reference material, videos, practice quizzes, and practice tests. See below for more details.

How do you have the highest national exam pass rate if your course is shorter than the same course I’ve seen on other company websites?
Students are required to engage in preparatory activities before the class begins. Upon enrollment, you will be granted accessΒ toΒ an online study account comprising a comprehensive study guide, proprietary reference materials weΒ have created and refined over the years, instructional videos, practice quizzes, a glossary, and tests. These resources are designedΒ toΒ facilitate your preparation and ensure a thorough understanding of the course material.Β 
Β 
We are committed to providing thorough preparatory resources, including exclusive study materials unavailable elsewhere, setting us apart from other training centers. Combined with our instructor’s extensive experience of 30+ years and very effective and unique teaching methodologies, this contributesΒ toΒ our unparalleled pass rates, distinguishing us as the training center with the highest pass rate nationwide. However, this accelerated course demands equal dedication and effort from every student to guarantee success in the certification exam.
Β 
I don’t have a medical background. Have you had students with the no clinical knowledge or experience who succeeded in the program?
The program is designed for those without any medical background. We’ve had students from a wide variety of backgrounds pass the exam, become nationally certified EKG Technicians, and succeed in their new career – such as waiters, personal trainers, hospital housekeepers, an airline pilot and a casino card dealer.
Β 
However,Β  that said, still, this is an accelerated course that requires hard work and motivation from each student to ensure their success with the program.
Do you offer federal financial aid or scholarships?

While we don’t offer federal financial aid or scholarships, we do provide flexible payment options. Only a $300 deposit with a credit or debit card is required at the time of enrollment. The remaining balance isn’t due until you arrive for class if you’re taking the traditional 3-day course or the 1-day skills class. For the 3-day virtual/hybrid option, the balance is due on the 3rd day of class.

After taking your course, can I take the CCI (Cardiovascular Credentialing International) national certification exam?
Yes. After completing our course, you will Β be eligible to take the CCT (Certified Cardiographic Technician) and also the CRAT exams (Certified Rhythm Analysis Technician) for national certification with CCI (Cardiovascular Credentialing International).
Β 
We are an NHA national exam testing center. If your employer requires CCI certification, you may choose to take the exam with a CCI testing center, at your option, after completing our course.
What do I need to do before class to prepare?
