How Cambridge Prepares DMS Students for Life After Graduation

If you’re thinking about a career in diagnostic medical sonography, you’ll need the proper credentials from a qualified program. However, this is just the first step. You also need to think about life after graduation, such as how to interview with employers, how to cultivate your skills and how to develop career success. 

At Cambridge, we make sure all of our students are supported every step of the way, from their first day in class to beyond graduation. When you’re a DMS student, you’ll learn not just the necessary skills to be an ultrasound technician, but also how to have a meaningful, long-lasting career.

Hands-On Experience With Clinical Externships

We make sure all our students graduate with the readiness and confidence to be effective sonographers. That’s why we provide four consecutive clinical externships, which offer real-world training in sonography.

Whether you’re in Atlanta or Florida, we arrange training in a real healthcare setting, such as hospitals, clinics and imaging facilities. You’ll receive vital clinical training from knowledgeable professionals to sharpen your DMS skills and gain the necessary experience. Our externships empower you to effectively make the transition into the workforce. 

Real-World Preparation and Training

In addition to our externships, our students get hands-on training inside the classroom. With the help of supportive instructors and small classroom sizes, you’ll learn how to use the latest imaging technology in our state-of-the-art imaging lab. 

We also ensure our students are well-rounded in essential skills. Through each step of the curriculum, students cultivate their communication and organization skills, as well as their abilities to multitask and identify important details. 

This hands-on approach is key to preparing you for real-life DMS situations and ensuring your career success.
