The authors describe a competency-based, integrated medical technology educational program currently being implemented at Weber State College in Ogden, Utah. Problems associated with the traditional three academic years plus one year clinical education program are described, as well as problems involved in creating new programs. This type of program may prove to be a major advance in the future of medical technology education.
