Learn Medical Imaging Service Skills with Our Online Training Courses

If you’re looking to start a career in the medical imaging service field or advance your knowledge and skills, now is the time to get started. While our training facility is closed due to COVID-19, Technical Prospects offers a variety of online training courses that you can take from the convenience of your own home – taught by instructors with decades of OEM experience.

Our training material contains real-world knowledge from our team of Siemens medical imaging experts. They’ve seen and solved nearly any challenge you can imagine, and they bring that experience to the knowledge they share within our online training material.

Each course runs for four weeks using in-depth chapters, followed by a quiz. There are also mid-term and final exams to make sure you retain everything covered throughout the course. Another benefit of our online courses is that the schedule is yours. While you must complete all the chapter studies, quizzes, and exams, you can do this when it’s convenient for you during the month-long timeframe of the course. Plus, there’s no set schedule for course start-times throughout the year. When you sign up, your session begins, so our courses will work for whichever month is best for you.

Here’s a brief video overview of our online training:
