About
Cardiology offices, hospitals, and urgent care centers across Florida are actively hiring EKG Technicians — and this program is built to get you there. DCA Academy's EKG Technician Certification covers everything the NHA Certified EKG Technician (CET) exam requires, plus the hands-on skills and real-world knowledge employers expect on day one. You'll learn cardiac anatomy and physiology, proper 12-lead EKG electrode placement, how to read and interpret rhythm strips, and how to recognize the abnormal rhythms that require immediate clinical attention. By the time you complete this course, you'll be fully prepared to sit the NHA CET exam and walk into your first EKG technician role with confidence. Ideal for: CNAs looking to expand their scope and earn more, Medication Technicians and Monitor Technicians ready to advance, anyone pursuing a PCT credential who needs the EKG component, and healthcare students and career changers entering cardiology. DCA Academy is an affiliate of other educational institutions and may outsource certain aspects of this course to an affiliate institution.
