About this Program

The emergence of the imaging informatics profession and the PACS administrator role is an answer to the complexity of the digital imaging environment. PACS (now called MIMPS by the FDA), management and healthcare informatics require specific knowledge and skills unique to imaging informatics technology. This four-part CIIP exam prep series (2 hours each session) prepares students to sit for the Certified Imaging Informatics Professional (CIIP) certification exam.

Healthcare professionals and IIP (imaging informatics professionals) with current PACS knowledge will benefit most from attending this registry review. As you participate in this CIIP certification refresher, your instructor will follow the CIIP content specifications to help you prepare for the certification exam. It is recommended that you participate in the entire series to obtain the knowledge you will need to successfully pass the CIIP certification exam.

A printable download will be available to each registrant prior to the first session of the PACS registry review webinar. This will allow you to follow along with the presentation and make notes as you feel necessary.

This webinar will be presented in four 2-hour sessions. Tuition listed is per session.

The instructors who lead our certification prep webinars and courses are true professionals with years of experience in their fields. They are ready, willing, and able to share that CIIP exam prep expertise with you.

How Hard Is the CIIP Exam?

No doubt, the certified imaging informatics professional (CIIP) certification test from ABII is challenging. After all, it is designed to ensure your understanding of more than 10 areas critical to imaging informatics. It covers a lot of ground and will take careful study and exam preparation to pass it successfully. That is where our CIIP exam prep program can make all the difference. From project management issues to image management, MTMI’s registry review program dives into CIIP certification essentials to help you better prepare to take—and pass—the exam.
