Electrocardiogram or EKG Technician

What is an EKG Technician?

 This program will prepare students to perform EKG tests and to understand the background information on anatomy and physiology of the heart, medical disease processes, medical terminology, electrocardiography and stress testing. Further, students will learn the interpersonal skills needed to interact with others as well as how to conduct themselves professionally in a medical environment.

 EKG Technicians typically work in a doctor’s office, clinic, or hospital. Tests are commonly performed by the technician as part of a general physical examination, pre surgery work up, or one who is experiencing current or has experienced past cardiovascular problems. 


According to Salary.com EKG Technicians earn on average of 38,000 a year in Atlanta.
