rravkin@aol.com Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Terri, congratulations! Can I ask if you studied through a program or on your own. And if a program, which one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbostock Posted November 9, 2015 Author Share Posted November 9, 2015 Terri, congratulations! Can I ask if you studied through a program or on your own. And if a program, which one?I am currently enrolled in Rush University's online program. First year is SBB, then you take the exam. You can either get a certificate for the program or continue on to a Master's in Clinical Lab Management and they will give you credit for all of the SBB classes that you completed. It's recommended to take the first year full time (better chance of passing the test the first time), then you can keep going to finish the Master's or do that portion on a part-time basis, which is what I am doing. Great program, great instructors. rravkin@aol.com and John C. Staley 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amym1586 Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 That's awesome! I've got the page pulled up and I've got an old professor pushing me to try it. What are some good perks for having your SBB? Other than just being really awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got the page pulled up and I've got an old professor pushing me to try it.What are some good perks for having your SBB? Other than just being really awesome.Other than making you extremely awesome , it will open doors for the rest of your career. Crazy; when I put on LinkedIn that I had just enrolled at the school, I started to get recruiters sending me job offers. My most tempting one was at the beach, $100K+ salary with lucrative bonuses. LOL. Seriously though, you should do it. You will have no life for the year that you are preparing for it, but it's worth it. goodchild, Malcolm Needs and amym1586 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodchild Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Definitely agree with Terri. You also learn a whole lot and become a much better blood banker for it during the course of your studies, I have to imagine. I'd love to go for it when my kids are older. amym1586 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
