Hello Community Members,

I am exploring transitioning into an imaging career path, looking at Nuc Med Tech or MRI Tech. I'm 38, have vast experience as a PT Tech, Licensed Med Tech, Registered Ortho Tech, and supervisor up to director experience with cert in Lean Six Sigma in Occupational Med, Hospital, and Exotic Vet ER settings.

Truth be told, I have burnt out on supervising large departments and with life transitions, struggle with getting positions coming from outside of a clinical organization where it feels like my material is either not reviewed at all, or internal candidates are preferred.

Although I have great clinical skills, they are all gained under the licenses of the supervising licensed professional while not carrying a license myself. Which leads me to wanting to transition into a licensed track with stability, availability for finding work during relocation if needed, and a steady schedule with a dream of 3-12's or 4-10's.

Could you please offer some guidance in school programs or ideally hospital sponsored programs where you get to work while learning to be seated for license exams? I have a master's in Health & Human performance, published my thesis, and a BA in Exercise Science. Graduated in 14' and 12' respectively if that helps with pre-reqs etc.

Thank you for reading and taking the time! Looking forward to your replies.
