Inteleos and Sonography Canada Partner to Provide Canadian Sonographers with Option to Obtain US Sonography Credentials
Inteleos, a nonprofit global healthcare certification organization, is partnering with Sonography Canada (SC), the national credentialing body and professional association for sonographers in Canada, to offer Canadian sonographers an opportunity to earn specific US credentials through the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography (ARDMS).
Canadian sonographers who wish to earn ARDMS credentials in breast, fetal echocardiography, pediatric sonography and echocardiography and musculoskeletal sonography specialties may substitute their passing scores on Sonography Canada Core Examinations 5.1, 6.0, or 6.1 for the ARDMS Sonography Principles and Instrumentation (SPI) exam.
In October 2023, the program will open to Canadian sonographers who are active SC members in good standing and who maintain at least one Sonography Canada credential.
This partnership gives our members the opportunity to earn additional credentials and demonstrate their knowledge, skills and abilities in these specialties and to be recognized for their career accomplishments. It enables sonographers, first certified by Sonography Canada, to broaden their scope of practice, and explore new, global, career options. Additional program information and requirements can be found on the Sonography Canada website and the ARDMS website.
