On behalf of the AAPT Council, I'd like to offer our sincere congratulations to all APTs who have recently passed either the Certificate or Diploma exam - well done, you should all be very proud of yourselves.
Our qualifications are one of the most important assets we have as professionals - they cement our knowledge and experience into a specific and satisfying personal achievement, whilst sending a message to the wider world that APTs are worthy of parity with other Healthcare Science disciplines and that we should get the recognition we deserve.
With the forthcoming exciting changes to the suite of Anatomical Pathology Technology qualifications, this message can only get stronger, and I look forward to the future of our profession, a future that has you at its very foundation.
For those of you who may not have received the results you wanted, please speak to the Student rep for help / guidance for re-sits or for just general support.
