Why Choose SleepEdu.org for your Continuing Education
Sleep technologists are required to get re-certified every five years to maintain their credentials. To get re-certified, one must either retake and pass the RPSGT or RST examination, or accrue 50 continued education credits (CECs) over the five years in the US or Canada.
In any healthcare industry, change is constant, therefore so is learning. With new medical applications, processes, technology and diagnoses, each healthcare professional including respiratory therapists are required to continue to learn and stay current in their field.
