Testimonials:
 
"I am a 13 year ARRT practicing member and recently had the opportunity to take a position in PET/CT. In order to stay compliant I was required to become eligible to sit for the PET exam. After long extensive search for the best Alternative program I decided on Mr. Marshel's. I never once second guessed my decision to use THE PET/CT TRAINING INSTITUTE . The program is easy to follow and use, and Mr. Marshel is beyond accessible considering we are a 3 hour difference in time. He arranged meeting times around my schedule and best of all......I was able to do it from the comfort of my home. You may consider going for a week long course but after you think about hotel rooms and bad restaurant food, and not to mention using vacation time , you will come back to this program...I did! Thanks Tim"

Good AM Mr. Marshel,
 
I just received my certificates yesterday in the mail, and I just wanted to say thank you for everything.  I truly appreciate all of your kindness and willingness to encourage through out the process.  I hope that your program has continual success.  I know it has truly been an inspiration to me, and I hope it will do the same for many others.  Keep up the great work!

I could never, ever had made it through the courses in four months without the expert guidance of Tim Marshel.  As a CT technologist, I had no previous background in nuclear medicine and I received step-by-step instruction in every course.  Additionally, I received above and beyond guidance by showing me the future for PET/CT in cardiology, neurology and oncology.
This is not only cutting-edge technology, it is in-depth instruction.

I have a wonderful experience at The PET/CT Training Institute, the materiral was very extent, a lot of info
         to go through, but ended very helpful. The power point  presentations were nicely done and educational, and
        very informative. This was a very exciting online experience.  I  recommend it.  The instructors were available at all times.
I enjoyed it!

The alternative on-line class was recommended to me by another technologist who was
already enrolled in the PET/CT Training Institute.
Taking an on-line class worked well with my work schedule as it allowed me to work
at my own pace.  I liked the way the modules were broken into sections as it made
the courses manageable and not seem overwhelming.  Tim made it clear from the start
that all I had to do was request a meeting time with him and we could discuss any
questions that I felt needed to be addressed. 

I would not hesitate to recommend the class to someone looking for an alternative
eligibility course.

I just wanted to thank you again for the practice exams. They were a huge help in preparing for the exam! I took it earlier today and passed with an 85%! Thanks again for all your help! It made a big difference!

The PET CT training Institute allowed me to work at my own pace and study the way
that it best suited me. With the classes being on line it made it possible for me to
go back to it through out the day and also spend blocks of time when that was
available to me. I was also able to refer back to the prior study material which
made it very easy to check information; the site was very user friendly. Finally I
always felt supported by the staff of the institute, if I had any questions or
concerns they were answered promptly and clearly.
