A Structured Pathway Toward Linac Certification
Are you a biomedical engineer seeking to develop a career in the maintenance and service of linear accelerator systems?
Are you a manager of a biomedical engineering department working to make your hospital more self-reliant?
Radiology Oncology Systems (ROS), in partnership with the College of Biomedical Equipment Technology (CBET) and Linax Technologies, now offers a structured, 5-level training program for Healthcare Technology Management (HTM) professionals — the first clearly defined pathway to becoming a certified linac technician.
This 5-level program combines online instruction with simulator- based training and instructor-led modules to equip participants with the knowledge and skills needed to support modern radiation therapy systems.
Training the Next Generation of Linac Technicians
Linear accelerators are among the most complex medical devices in cancer care. Their precise operation is critical—both to ensure patient safety and to maintain treatment accuracy. As biomedical technicians take on greater responsibilities, accessible, high-quality training is essential.
This program fills a critical HTM skills gap by offering a practical, scalable, and affordable alternative to vendor-based training.
