Ready to get certified for one of the most widely hired roles in healthcare?

You’ll learn how to operate the electrocardiogram—an essential piece of hospital equipment—and work with doctors to interpret the results for patients. You’ll even earn yourself 20 clinical hours of hands-on experience, so if you’re ready to jump into the action ASAP, EKG technician training is the course of action for you.
