Why
are some of the credit values changing on certain homestudy programs?
The ARRT will
always accept homestudy programs as one of the avenues to complete
continuing education, however, the credit values of ALL homestudy
programs will change throughout 2006-2008. The credit
previously awarded for the time alloted to take the post test portion
of the program will no longer count for credit. Therefore, when programs
are renewed by the ASRT the values decrease. We suggest you check
our website frequently for any updates and changes to our programs.
Any questions concerning this change should be directed to the ARRT
Dept. of Continuing Education (651) 687-0048 ex.540 or www.arrt.org.
