The Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology accredits educational programs in radiography, radiation therapy, magnetic resonance, and medical dosimetry. Its accreditation work aims to promote excellence in education and elevate the safety and quality of patient care by ensuring programs meet established standards. Educational programs seeking accreditation—its primary customers—rely on the JRCERT to assess curricula and delivery. The organization is based in Chicago, Illinois. It operates with a relatively small staff. The JRCERT holds a distinctive role in the education administration programs field as the only agency recognized by the United States Department of Education for accrediting traditional and distance-learning programs in these radiologic disciplines. A notable recent development is the June 2022 launch of the AMS Portal, which supports its accreditation processes.
