Introduction
All entry-level medical technologists are expected to have achieved certain standards of performance.
Standards define the general body of knowledge, skills, tasks/procedures and attitudes that medical laboratory
technologists must have in order to be considered competent. The acceptable standards encompass the
competencies identified in this profile which must be achieved upon completion of the practical training
experience. The competencies represent the broad occupational skills, attitudes, and abilities that must be
mastered for entry into the profession and encourage learners to integrate related outcomes and perform at
higher and more complex levels.
As the student completes each competency area of the various skills/tasks/procedures, it must be verified by
recording the initials of the supervisor in the designated space. Upon completion of the clinical experience, the
form must be signed by the Laboratory Manager/designate and returned by the student to the Secretary
responsible for the School of Allied Health in the Faculty Office or the Clinical Coordinator of the School
of Allied Health, College of Medical Sciences.
The student must conform to the rules and regulation of the laboratory to which he/she has been assigned to
for the execution of their clinical experience with an acceptable attendance record of 85% and above. The
Medical Technology department considers an overall competency level of “3” as that level necessary to perform
as an entry – level medical laboratory technologist.
