Be the Current. Amplify Potential. Build the Future.
Why Your Support Matters
Biomedical technicians are essential to the future of healthcare. They ensure the technology that supports diagnosis, treatment, and patient care is reliable, safe, and ready when it’s needed most. By investing in their education, certification, and professional growth, we are not only strengthening a critical workforce but also helping to secure better outcomes for patients and communities everywhere.
THE STATISTICS
About 7,300 annual job openings vs. roughly 400 graduates.

More than 30 college programs have closed in recent years.
Many teams report heavy workloads that threaten uptime and safety.
Entry-level roles start near $40k–$50k, with median pay around $62,630 after a two-year pathway.

Your gift helps aspiring biomedical technicians access education, certification exams, and the tools they need to enter the field. 100% of donations go directly to financial assistance for students and exam fees for technicians without employer support.
-
We help both aspiring and current biomedical technicians advance their careers by sponsoring industry-recognized certifications. This includes the CABT (Certified Associate in Biomedical Technology) for those entering the field, as well as the CBET (Certified Biomedical Equipment Technician), CHTM (Certified Healthcare Technology Manager), and CRES (Certified Radiology Equipment Specialist) for working professionals.
Your donation covers AAMI study preparation courses, participation in an AAMI study group, and the exam fees for technicians whose employers do not provide reimbursement. By removing these financial barriers, we empower more professionals to earn credentials that strengthen skills, build confidence, and open new opportunities.
-
We connect new and experienced biomedical technicians through mentorship programs that foster career growth, industry knowledge, and professional support. Your donation also helps sponsor conference attendance for students and early-career biomeds, giving them access to valuable networking, hands-on learning, and exposure to the latest innovations in healthcare technology management.
By funding mentorship and conference opportunities, you are helping to build a stronger, more connected biomed community that is prepared to meet the challenges of the future.
