12 Become a Certified Tumor Registrar

After students hear about the cancer registry field, they often ask how to become a cancer registrar. To take the Certified Tumor Registrar (CTR) examination, candidates must meet education and experience eligibility requirements. The National Cancer Registrars Association Council on Certification has defined three routes for achieving this goal, which are discussed in the presentation. Certified Tumor Registrars enjoy career opportunities in many settings, from hospitals and state registries to national cancer programs, and even consulting firms.

I am a school teacher and looking for a career change with minimum training. I am a single mom working full time, so doing an unpaid practicum doesn't seem feasible for me. Is there a way to get into this without having to quit my job.

Try finding a job listing that will let you work for them to gain the hours. Since I’m sure you already have at least an associates degree. Im thinking about applying but I’m worried they’ll try to make me take minimum wage while I do the hours to take the test. I already have an associates degree and human anatomy and physiology credits. Good luck to you ❤❤❤
