Hurley School of Radiologic Technology JCERT Accreditation Process

The Hurley School of Radiologic Technology Program is a two year, hospital based radiology program located in Flint, Michigan. The curriculum and clinical experience on site at the medical center focuses on Diagnostic Imaging and its specialty modalities. Completion of the program and subsequent requirements enables the graduate to write the national registry examination. The school was due for reaccreditation by the Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology (JRCERT) in 2014. The JRCERT is the gate keeper selected by the United States Department of Education (USDE); to ensure educational facilities provide excellence in education, high quality healthcare and patient care safety for radiologic sciences. This process was done through a Self-Study, Site Visit, Report of Findings and an Action Plan; based on JRCERT Standards and Objectives. The reaccreditation process took just over two years to complete for school administration. Program Officials have yet one final process in progress; in order for a final award decision from the JRCERT. Credentialing for postsecondary educational facilities is voluntary and of utmost importance for confirming quality in educational programs. The Hurley Medical Center School of Radiologic Technology is proud of its program and community reputation for educating and developing highly qualified and competent Radiographers.
