Graduate Diploma in Ultrasound

The Ultrasound program at Michener is a post graduate accredited program and offers a combination of didactic, simulated, and clinical components. Clinical sites are located in Ontario and throughout Canada.

During the clinical year, students attempt the Canadian Clinical Skills Assessment (CCSA), as per Sonography Canada. Students are required to pass the CCSA’s in order to successfully complete the ultrasound program and move forward with the credentialing process of becoming a Generalist Sonographer.

Ultrasound graduates are eligible to write the national credentialing examinations for the Generalist Sonographer (coreabdominalsuperficial structures, vascular for generalist, obstetrics and gynecology) conducted by Sonography Canada. Upon successful completion of the credentialing exams, the students can apply for registration with the College of Medical Radiation and Imaging Technologists of Ontario (CMRITO) allowing them to practice within the province of Ontario. Graduates are also able to work in all provinces across Canada with the Generalist Credential from Sonography Canada, provided they meet the provincial guidelines.
