Program Code: A45320T

(2021*03) 

This program requires a 2.2 or greater high school GPA from a College Prep Curriculum valid within 10 years, or a placement test demonstrating placement into college-ready English 111 and math.  If either of these requirements is not met, the student will be placed into Associate in General Education – First Year (A10300-FY).  *See the A10300FY – Associate in General Education-First Year Program page for more information.

The Electroneurodiagnostic Technology curriculum is designed to provide students with the knowledge and skills to obtain recordings of patients’ nervous system function through the use of electroencephalographic equipment and other electrophysiological devices.  

Course work includes communication skills with patients and healthcare personnel, taking appropriate patient histories, electrode application, documentation of patients’ clinical status, electrical waveform recognition, management of medical emergencies, and preparation of descriptive reports for the physician.  

The R. EEG T to AAS in END Transition program is designed for current unrestricted Registered Electroneurodiagnostic Technologists (R.EEG T) to complete the Associate in Applied Science Electroneurodiagnostics Degree. Applicants must meet the minimum admissions requirements, which includes submitting a current R. EEG T certificate/license/credential. 

Students are required to complete at minimum 25 percent of the program requirements at LCC as mandated by SACSCOC, and each student will receive an individualized education plan to ensure this requirement is met. Applicants have the opportunity to complete selected EDT courses via credit by exam (see college catalog), and EDT faculty will administer the exams related to this process. In the event a student is unsuccessful in the credit by exam process, the student may choose to complete the program by enrolling in the next available cohort on campus. Additionally, applicants may submit previous college work to be evaluated for possible transfer credits. Upon completion graduates are eligible to apply for advanced 2+2 baccalaureate programs. Applicants can apply at any time throughout the year to the END Department.
