A-STEP in the Right Direction
Ø For Sleep Medicine Practices
By participating in A-STEP, you will shorten the learning curve for new sleep technicians and will strengthen the knowledge-base of all sleep techs – a benefit to both your practice and your patients.
Ø For Your Sleep Technologists *
A-STEP contributes positively to the growing field of sleep technology by preparing participants for their professional positions as sleep technicians, by providing them with the knowledge necessary to confidently approach the Board of Registered Technologists (BRPT) exam, and by keeping for them a registry of their A-STEP completion credentials at the AASM national office.
Ø For Your Sleep Center or School
Accreditation of your sleep technologist training program enhances the program’s reputation and ensures support from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. In local communities, A-STEP makes standardized education and training available to a larger audience of sleep technologists.
Ø For Sleep Medicine
A-STEP contributes to the entire field of sleep medicine by increasing knowledge among the field’s stakeholders, and by improving the quality of care provided to sleep disordered patients across the country.
