BAHU online surgical technician training is far superior to other online surgical Technician programs because it includes the training and exam review for the EKG technician and a comprehensive, but simple tailored program for the Surgical Technician.  So a completion of our course enables the graduate to practice as an EKG Technician in any State of the United States, as well as practice as a Surgical Tech in any state. 

The  EKG tech course is offered as a bonus for surgical tech students who need the EKG bonus. However, the fees for the surgical Tech exam (see fees schedule) as well as the EKG Technician exam are NOT included in the fees. It is the student's responsibility to apply for and pay for the national certification exams if they wish to take the exam. 


Best American Healthcare College is an institution approved to offer courses in the United states, hence our certificate of completion is valid for work even without going for the outside exam certification. However for students who need the national exam certifications, we recommend the EKG and Surgical Tech national certification exam through Healthcare Professionals Competency Testing HPCT

 See Healthcare Professionals Competency Testing (HPCT)  fee schedule. Student are free to choose another certifying agency. Students who choose HPCT would be able to sit for the surgical tech national exam at the end of the course work before completing the scrubs. They will  receive the school certificate of completion as well as the national certificate after passing exam with HPCT.
