The cardiac function and interventional technology program seeks to instill essential knowledge, skills and dispositions for successful careers, and servant leadership in cardiac device interventional technologies with an emphasis in cardiac rhythm management and electrophysiology.
This full-time pathway for college graduates will accelerate your pursuit of a career in the cardiac technology industry through ten months of industry-based training and leadership development.
CFIT-PRO is a primarily online, part-time program for professionals who have been employed with a cardiac device company or with cardiac patient care experience for at least two years to escalate their technical training and further develop their management and leadership skills.
What is CRM?
Cardiac rhythm management is the study of abnormal heart rhythms and conditions that are treatable with implantable devices. These devices can perform a variety of diagnostic, pacing and defibrillation functions in order to save and improve patients lives.
What is EP?
Cardiac electrophysiology studies the assessment and treatment of abnormally fast heart rhythms originating from the heart’s conduction system. EP procedures utilize novel, minimally invasive technologies that often achieve curative results for patients.
"The CFIT program established a new gold-standard of excellence in cardiac device and electrophysiology education for the industry! CFIT graduates will have a positive impact on patients' lives as well as the industry that provides cardiac care to patients." –Tristan Pendergrass, MBA, FHRS, CCDS, CEPS, CDRMS, RCES
“Harding's 10-month master's program collaborates with successful biomedical engineering, health sciences and professional sales degree programs as well as top companies in the industry. I have not been this excited about an educational endeavor since founding the Arrhythmia Technologies Institute 35 years ago!” –Mark Sweesy, FHRS, CCDS, CEPS, RCES
If you can impact somebody’s heart health, you can make a difference in how they feel, which impacts their families and community
