SiemensThree ASRT members are headed to a conference of their choice thanks to the 2016 Siemens Education Journey Award they received from the ASRT Foundation.

The unique grants program was made possible through a generous Siemens Healthcare donation to the Foundation’s Celebration Campaign. Three grants of up to $4,000 were awarded to enable radiologic technologists and students to attend conferences that support their professional development and promote peer-to-peer educational prospects.

The recipients of the 2016 Siemens Education Journey Award are:

  • • Ross Daniels, R.T.(R), of Tallahassee, Florida, who will attend the Siemens Innovations for Imaging conference in Las Vegas this April.
  • • Devonia Moore, R.T.(R), of Six Mile, South Carolina, who will attend the RSNA Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting, including ASRT@RSNA, in Chicago this November and December.
  • • Larry Sibley II, R.T.(R), of Venice, Florida, who will attend the ASRT Educational Symposium in Las Vegas this June.

 

“Through the Education Journey Award, Siemens Healthcare is proud to align once again with the ASRT and the Foundation in demonstrating our ongoing commitment to fostering continuing education opportunities for radiologic technologists,” said Nanci Wozniak, vice president of education services at Siemens Healthcare. “This grant money will help enable technologists to develop valuable new professional skills, improve workplace efficiency and deliver quality patient outcomes.”

ASRT Foundation Development Manager Keith Greer said, “This is an exciting opportunity for radiologic science professionals and students. It’s unlike any other award we’ve given in the past. Because of the generous support of Siemens Healthcare, these R.T.s will be able to learn from some of the best and brightest minds in the profession. It’s a testament to the commitment and collaborative spirit of the radiologic technology community.”
