Thanks for the plug Jay.  
Porscha, 
Under a separate cover I have also sent you some information on our BS HTL 
program at MD Anderson. We start taking applications in October for next fall.  
When will you be moving to Texas?  
Hope to hear from you soon.

PorshaIf I were you I would get an HT or HTL certification from the ASCP and 
then see what the market is like and also what the state licensure is where you 
will be located.

There is no state licensure for histotechs in Texas.  Spring is only 25 miles 
from Houston, the 4th largest city in the United States, with a world class 
medical center, including MD Anderson, which runs a histo school.

Maybe you don't understand HOW wide it can vary. Some place it could max out at 
low $20 per hour. Others high $30's to low $40's.

I hope I get some honest answers out there so here goes,

Variables are:

5yr professionals both HT and non-cert with equal capabilities.

And assuming routine histo duties (embedding, cutting, etc maybe light 
grossing) and for kicks lets say primarily working with animal tissue,

Based on your personal experience, where can these individuals expect to max 
out as far as hourly pay? Sure, we know it could vary based on institution and 
location but there definitely is a ceiling. Or alternatively, what WON'T you 
pay this person regardless of experience.
