Shore’s program is accredited by the Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology and the State of New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, Bureau of X-ray Compliance.
The Bureau of X-Ray Compliance analyzed the performances of radiologic technology students throughout the State of New Jersey, and the students at Shore’s program ranked No. 1 in the state.

The Radiologic Technology program at Shore Medical Center cooperates with Atlantic Cape Community College to help prepare students for a career in medical imaging. The program meets the need of those students who desire certification and employment in the community as a Radiologic Technologist. The ARRT requires students on this career path to have a minimum of an associate degree from the accredited institution to take the ARRT Radiography certification exam.
The mission of this program is to provide a comprehensive and quality education in radiologic technology and to provide the community with competent and compassionate technologists.
