ARRT Professional Education and Growth Grant

Program Goals

The grant program, funded by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists, supports active ASRT affiliates by providing up to one recipient per affiliate each year with a reimbursement of up to $500. Funds may be used for continuing education, educational conferences (including meals and transportation) or ARRT primary or postprimary certification exams.

Education is the first element of ARRT’s Equation for Excellence (education + ethics + examination). It plays a vital role when earning primary or postprimary certification and throughout a professional’s career, ensuring that knowledge and skills remain current in an ever-evolving health care industry.
