Make sure you are eligible to take the exam. Usually,in order to be certified as a clinical technologist, you have to: 1) 1 year of training in a Certified clinical lab (clinical labs in China not count here, because there is no certification system there) if you have a Bechalor's degree. 2) half year of training in a Certified clinical lab if you have a master's degree. 3) three month of training in a Certified clinical lab if you have a PhD degree. Some clinical labs provide the training program, usually 9 mon to 13 months. It is not easy to get into the program. The job market for Clinical technologists is still OK (maybe good). In US, all the clinical diagnostic tests have to be performed by a Certified technologist in a certified clinical lab, the trainee number is limited each year. You can call ASCP for more information.

If you only want to know whether or not the certificate will help you to find a job. My simple answer is "Yes". Following are some information: "A recent study by the American Society for Clinical Pathology published in the March issue of LabMedicine confirms the shortage of medical technologists, reporting that half of all laboratories nationwide are struggling to hire lab personnel." "The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services reports that by 2012, 138, 000 lab professionals will be needed, but fewer than 50,000 will be trained." "The starting salary for a medical technologist depends on the location, but many graduates earn from $35,000 to $43,000, he said. According to Salary. com, the median salary for ASCP-certified medical technologists in the United States is around $56,000." You may not have much choice for the first job, but after you get experience , more chances are waiting for you. Two points: 1) at least bachelor's degree in the related field 2) "acceptable clinical laboratory experience in molecular diagnostics in the U.S., Canada or an accredited clinical laboratory** within the last five years." You have to be trained in a Accredited Clinical Laboratory in order to take the lisence exam. If you only work in molecular labs without being certified (such as all the reseearch labs),you cannot take the exam.

多谢前辈的信息。您提供了mlt和mls的就业前景的相关信息,我之前也有些了解,后来 发现这两个项目受益的还是本科或者硕士学历,是博士的话不值得考。我是phd program打算考mb认证,我咨询了我们学校mls项目的负责人还有一些美国的mls,说如 果是博士的话,最好不要考mls or mlt因为工资还是比较低的。如果是博士的话,性价 比比较高的是mb(起薪大概在80k以上)当然,还可以考一些其他的跟本专业相关的专 业认证。 我现在是博士第三年,也不是特别着急考,因为考出来3年就得renew一次。 我的问题是,不知道这个mb毕业后真的能拿到80k的工资吗?还是说sr的才行?另外, mb的需求量有像mls or mlt的大吗?

you mean board certification as a director? That's very competitive. I just talked to a director who is board certificated. She said the program is 2 years, very competitive to get in. In her class, they have 80+ applicants, and only one got admitted.
I do not know the salary for technologist. According to my understanding, MB is also one of the technologists specifically certified in molecular lab. My gut feeling is that the job market is also good. The clinical molecular labs are expanding due to the large amount of tests requested by clinicians recently. A molecular lab director had complained the shortage of mb to me. In a clinical lab: Technician (associate degree)---- Technologist (bachelor with special training programs, master, PhD)---- Specialist So, you can start directly from "technologist", such as you mentioned mb. If you have cytogenetic background,I suggest you think about the cytotechonologist too. People said a cytotechnologist got paid more.
