New Zealand Graduates

The New Zealand courses of training available at Christchurch Polytechnic Institute of Technology (CPIT), Universal College of Learning (UCOL), UNITEC and the University of Otago’s Wellington School of Medicine and Health Sciences have been accredited by the Medical Radiation Technologists Board as meeting registration standards.

These courses are monitored by the MRTB as required by the HPCA Act, including a site visit every five years, to satisfy the Board that graduates have achieved an adequate standard of skills, knowledge and experience for them to be registered as medical radiation technologists.

Students graduating from these courses are required to be registered and hold an Annual Practising Certificate (APC) prior to commencing work. This application form has been designed specifically for graduating students as it incorporates both an application for registration as an MRT in New Zealand and an application for an APC. application form The Board acknowledges that you will want to commence work as soon as possible and has streamlined the process for you this year.
