CLIA Blood Banking Competency Assessment
Patrick Barnes MA MT(ASCP)
CLIA Blood Banking covers key topics in blood banking and transfusion medicine, including antigens, antibodies, genotyping, phenotyping, and more. A review module allows you to learn with interactive questions and detailed feedback, and when you're ready, the competency assessment will document your proficiency and award CE credit. CLIA Blood Banking is also ideal for facilities needing to document CLIA competency for their employees.
