Hello Histonet, I'm curious how people are dealing with on-the-job-trained histotechs. Many people are seeing a shortage in techs, and in my opinion OJT will become more common than it already is. Does anyone have an 'official' training program? Requirements to pass the exam? Qualifications to be able to be trained on-the-job? I'd like to consider having some kind of plan in place when I don't have an HT/HTL applicant but have folks who, if they get the experience, are otherwise qualified to sit for the exam. If anyone has a similar situation or experience to share I would appreciate it!
