WVJC Launches New Online/Hybrid Radiologic Technology Program in West Virginia

West Virginia Junior College (WVJC) is thrilled to announce the launch of its new 18-
Month Online/Hybrid Radiologic Technology program. This program is now available to
interested students who live within an hour and a half of one of the following
online/hybrid locations: Morgantown, Elkins, Philippi, Buckhannon, Charleston, Beckley,
or Princeton, West Virginia.
“WVJC is proud to introduce the first radiologic technology program of its kind in West
Virginia. Developed in direct response to the region’s growing workforce shortage, this
online-hybrid model provides accessible didactic education paired with rigorous, in-
person laboratory and clinical experiences. This program strengthens both student
opportunity and the healthcare systems that depend on well-trained imaging
professionals,” said Radiologic Technology Program Director, Dr. Stephanie Stauver.
The program consists of virtual courses and simulations paired with hands-on learning
at regional healthcare facilities, giving students some flexibility as they complete their
education.
“Our online-hybrid model provides accessible, high-quality education while ensuring
students receive the essential hands-on skills required for clinical excellence. We’re
preparing the next generation of radiologic technologists who will make a true difference
in the rural communities we serve. This program represents our commitment to
supporting both students and the healthcare systems that rely on well-trained radiologic
technologists,” said Stephanie.
Throughout the accelerated 18-month program, students will gain essential knowledge
in medical imaging, radiation safety, technology operations, and more. Graduates will
be prepared to sit for the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT)
certification examination* and be conferred an Associate of Applied Science in
Radiologic Technology Degree.
The first cohort of Radiologic Technology students is expected to start in August 2026.
Interested applicants are encouraged to begin the application process now, as seats are
limited and competitive. For more information about WVJC’s new Radiologic
