title: Incorporating general education competencies in the radiography curriculum.
abstract: Due to the absence of general education (ie, arts and sciences) competencies in radiography accreditation standards, individual programs vary with regard to the amount and type of general education offered. Throughout the last 15 years, renowned educators have repeatedly suggested that, amongst other things, career mobility for the radiographer could be improved as a result of introducing general education into the curriculum. A method for incorporating general education competencies in the radiography curriculum through revision of the accreditation standards is presented.
