"I was someone that thought I knew a lot, and then after this program, I realized it was humbling and I learned a lot more through there."
"Getting to best practice share with staff or people from other organizations and building relationships with them, especially in the recent contrast crisis, we were able to reach out to each other and communicate and see what each other was doing to get through that time period."
"Going back to work, I'm more confident explaining things to the other technologists. I'm more confident troubleshooting, and I'm able to explain to the radiologist why we're doing what we're doing. And when I'm not able to do it, I've networked enough to get in touch with people at Siemens and they are just a phone call away."
"The professional development program, it has taken my existing skills as a technologist and has layered it with mentorship, professional development, structured education, and then at the end of this project, I'll complete a quality project that will positively impact my patients at home."
