Mission
Moultrie Technical College Mission
Moultrie Technical College is a multiple campus institution of higher learning whose mission as part of the Technical
College System of Georgia is to provide a culture of learning through occupational education, academic education,
distance education, business and industry training, and workforce development supporting the education and
economic advancement of Colquitt, Tift, Turner, and Worth counties.
The college fulfills its mission by providing accessible, quality education leading to associate degrees, diplomas,
technical certificates of credit, and programs to assist adults in literacy education.
Program Mission Statement
The mission of the Moultrie Technical College Radiology Program is to provide a comprehensive education, which
will prepare graduates with the entry- level skills necessary to seek employment as a radiographer and receive an
Associate’s Degree at the end of the program.
Program Philosophy
The concept of professional technical education, regardless of the form such education may take, is firmly based in
the belief that the capability of the individual to contribute as a member of the society is related not only to the
distinctive capabilities inherent in each person, but also to learned knowledge and to the development of those
capabilities.
4 Revised June 2012

5. The entire operation of the Moultrie Technical College Program of Radiologic Technology shall be directed by
a very real concern for the individual student, and recognition that individual advancement, through the acquisition of
knowledge and skills, enhances the ability of the student to meet his or her needs as well as those of the society.
Consistent with the philosophy, the administration and faculty of the school take the position that students are
here to access a means for personal and professional growth and development. The curriculum, objectives and
program policies are intended to promote this position.

6. Accreditation
MTC ACCREDITATION
Commission of the Council on Occupational Education
Moultrie Technical College is accredited by the Accrediting Commission of the Council on Occupational Education. Inquiries
regarding accreditation should be addressed to the Council on Occupational Education, 41 Perimeter Center East, NE, Suite 640,
Atlanta, GA 30346 or (770) 396-3898.
RADIOLOGY PROGRAM ACCREDITTION
Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology
(JRCERT)
The Moultrie Technical College Program of Radiologic Technology is fully accredited by the Joint Review
Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology. Students graduating from accredited programs may be eligible to
apply to sit for the national examination sponsored by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists. In addition
to JCERT eligibility requirements, all senior students in their final quarter must pass a simulated registry examination
(usually held in the latter part of May as a component of RAD 126), to be permitted to graduate and sit for the
A.R.R.T exam. Minimum passing score is 75%.
Accreditation of an educational program provides students, as graduates, assurance that the program will provide them with the
requisite knowledge, skills, and values to competently perform the range of professional responsibilities expected by potential
employers nationwide. It also assures they will be eligible for licensure in each of the 50 states. By requiring programs to teach
the entire curriculum developed by the national professional organization, the American Society of Radiologic Technology, it
also assures students they will have the foundation knowledge to continue to develop as professionals in the various fields of the
radiation sciences.
Accreditation of educational programs assures patients that students who perform procedures have appropriate supervision
during the educational process. It also assures them that graduates will have met the minimum level of competency as defined
nationally by the profession.
The program complies with requirements to achieve and maintain JRCERT recognition of all clinical education
settings. The clinical education settings currently recognized by the JRCERT are Brooks County Hospital, Quitman,
GA Colquitt Regional Medical Center in Moultrie, Tallahassee Memorial Regional Medical Center in Tallahassee,
Fla. and Tift Regional Medical Center, Tifton, Ga. (Includes West Campus).

41. Textbooks
Prior to the start of classes each year the faculty reviews and selects textbooks that meet the needs of the
courses they teach. In some cases, textbooks may change from one year to the next, or a given book may be
released in a new edition.
It is the responsibility of the student to purchase all assigned books. The required textbooks for the full
program costs approximately $500.00. At the present time, the State of Georgia reimburses textbook expenses
in the amount of $100.00 per semester; therefore, students who remain in the program will, over time, recover
their initial outlay.
Students may choose, at their own option, to purchase other reference books to assist them in their
studies. Questions concerning the potential value of any reference should be referred to the Program Director.
