Re: surgical tech
Surgical Tech at BOCES Ranked Tops
The Surgical Technonology program at Wilson Technological Center was just ranked in the top 10% of surgical technology programs in the United States. The program received a national merit award from the Liaison Council on Certification for Surgical Technologist because all of the 2003 graduates who attempted the national certification exam, passed and achieved the status of Certified Surgical Technologist.
“This 100 % pass rate is due to the excellent instructors and to our diligent students. We are extremely proud of everyone.” noted Joseph Myers, Executive Director of Career and Technical Education at Wilson Technological Center, a division of Western Suffolk BOCES.
Kathi Baker, program administrator, added that the demand is very strong for Surg Techs. Everyone in last year’s class is working in health care, she said.
Tech’s 10-month program prepares students for employment in the operating room, surgical office, delivery room, emergency departments, physician and dentist offices, central supply services, cardiac catheterization clinics, tissue banks and ambulatory surgical care sites. Financial aid, loans, grants and payment plans are available to qualified applicants.
Applications are now being accepted for September classes in Surgical Technology. There are no specific academic prerequisites for admission into the program, however, students must pass the Test of Basic Adult Education (TABE) and a pre-entrance exam. For more information about the program or for an application for the pre-entrance exam, call (631) 261-3727. Additional information about the program and financial aid is also available at www.wilsontech.org.
