The result of a search of the ARDMS Directory of Registrants serves as a primary source verification of credentials by the ARDMS. It is the responsibility of an employer to confirm with sufficient identifiers that an individual, whose credentials are being reviewed, is the same person reported in the Directory.
The ARDMS Directory of Registrants will provide information regarding status in the following categories:
Active Registrant: An individual who: (1) has successfully passed a physical principles and instrumentation examination and corresponding specialty examination, thereby earning a credential with official notification by ARDMS; and (2) is in compliance with continuing competency and/or annual renewal fee requirements.
Retired Registrant: A Registrant who is no longer actively working in the field, but wishes to maintain an association with ARDMS. A request for Retired status must be made in writing. There is no requirement to maintain CMEs for persons with Retired status. Retired status is permanent. Retesting is required to regain Active Registrant status.
