There is no CAP requirement that a person has to be certified or qualified in any way to perform Histology or Histology Assistant duties. As long as you can document their proven competency, they are good to perform any procedure. The only exception in the Histology lab, is if that tech is required to perform gross. Then they must be documented to be able to perform CLIAA high complexity testing.
