Both DICOM and HL7 have a corresponding certification. The DICOM certification is managed and issued by PARCA (https:/pacsadmin.org/cdip.cfm) and the HL7 certification is managed and issued by HL7 (https:/www.hl7.org/implement/certification.cfm). OTech ONLY provides the training and study resources that can be used to take the certification exams. Several of our training seminars include part or all of the exam fees for these certifications, but you are responsible for your own scheduling of the exams with the respective certification organizations.
