Frequently Asked Questions

What times are the classes held?

All classes are held from 9:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. except for EEG Board Prep which is held until 12:00 noon.

ASET-The Neurodiagnostic Society has approved Larry Head Institute for ACE (ASET Continuing Education Credits).

ACE credits are recognized by the American Board of Registration of Electroencephalographic and Evoked Potential Technologists (ABRET), American Association of Electrodiagnostic Technologists (AAET), and the American Board of Electrodiagnostic Medicine (ABEM).

Larry Head Institute awards Continuing Education Contact Hours. Course attendees receive a suitable-for-framing  Certificate of Attendance. Educational Contact Hours are listed on the certificate. The American Board of Registration of Electroencephalographic and Evoked Potential Technologists (ABRET) recognizes Larry Head Institute Education Contact hours for re-certification. It is the responsibility of the attendee to keep track of the Education Contact hours earned through LHI and to submit those to ABRET for re-certification. LHI does NOT track individual Education Contact hours and does NOT submit student continuing education confirmation to ABRET.

Will I receive a certificate for this course?

Larry Head Institute awards a Certificate of Completion for all courses. Certificates of Completion should not be misinterpreted as a registry, license, or validation of competency.

Will I be eligible to take board examinations after I complete the course?

As a past member of ABRET Larry has designed all Larry Head Institute courses to aid the experienced technologist preparing for credentialing examination.

Eligibility requirements for credentialing examinations are outlined on the American Board of Electroencephalographic and Evoked Potential Technologists (ABRET) website for EEG, Evoked Potentials, and Intraopertative Monitoring.

Is a license or registry required to work in this field?

National registry or state licensure is not required to perform EEG, EP, IOM, or NCS. Some employers require technologists to be registered / certified or registry-eligible.

Along with all the national professional organizations representing technologists Larry Head Institute supports and encourages the credentialing process due to its benefits to the patient, employers and the pride of professional achievement afforded the technologist. Therefore, all of our courses are Board Preparation focused.

Can someone with no training or experience take this course?

Comprehensive courses are designed to meet the needs of the practicing technologist and the cross-training allied health professional seeking to improve their knowledge and skills and prepare for national registry examination.

All courses are also aimed at the beginner or inexperienced technologist. Many attend without prior training or experience (some have never worked in the medical field) and complete the course with the knowledge and confidence to perform routine studies.

What payment methods does Larry Head Institute accept?

Larry Head Institute accepts corporate checks, personal checks, money orders and all major credit cards.
