[QUOTE who="KM in Garner, North Carolina"]Obviously I don't know anything about California rules and regulations, but the two of you in LA could look into molecular testing jobs at CA state lab and at LabCorp. I have worked at the NC State Lab of Public Health for 3+ years now and got hired here without having an ASCP certification. An ASCP certification is preferable (but not required), while a 4-yr biology -related degree is required...maybe your State Lab is the same way. I have worked in three different departments; Serology (IFA and ELISAs), Newborn Screening (CF genetic testing) and now in Molecular Diagnostics (testing and research). Before I joined the State Lab I had a job offer from LabCorp (but decided not to take it due to a long commute), so they hire non-ASCP as well.[/QUOTE]
Hello,
I have a question about ASCP exam for Molecular Biology. Actually I have a Master of Science degree from Agricultural Chemistry which is equivalent to US MS degree. So, am I elegible to get registration for MB ASCP or I need to get experiences of working in Pathology Lab. Please clear me. Thanks
