[Histonet] RE: What percent of HTL's do not have a BS degree?

[Maria Katleba]

You would want to hire an HTL if you were going to groom them to be a manager.  Wouldn't you want to have a person with a BS at minimum to run the department???

There is something to be said about an educated employee.  Also, most hospitals 'require' a BS at minimum for any supervisor or management position. That's how you stay competitive.

Experience is great, but getting a degree says a lot about a person, especially in today's economy!

I'm trying to find some solid statistics to justify being able to hire
HTL (ASCP) candidates who do not have a Bachelor's degree.  I am
contending that requiring the candidate to have a Bachelor's degree will
eliminate a substantial number of very qualified people.  Does anyone
have any solid references to support my position.

Thanks,

Steve
