NUCHAL TRANSLUCENCY

Certification

Requirements

There are two requirements for the certification process:

1. Successful completion of the Australian NT Online Theoretical Course, or attending a Theoretical Course conducted by the Australian Nuchal Translucency - Ultrasound, Education and Monitoring Program or its equivalent and completing the MCQ associated with the course.

2. Submission of 5 Nuchal Translucency images demonstrating the practitioner’s ability to comprehensively measure the Nuchal Translucency. For details of submission see image submission requirements.

The practical assessment / exam has been discontinued.

Only certified operators are able to gain access to the FMF Software

Operators who have completed a course in the past 3 years and who have successfully passed a logbook submission or who have noticed on an audit report that they are now a certified operator need to contact the office so that a ‘certificate of competence’ can be forwarded to them.

Certified operators are able to have access to the FMF software after declaring their ‘intent to practice’. The software will be distributed to certified operators who plan to open a new centre. Certified operators who wish to be added to a centre license or open a new centre are required to complete this form. Please refer to Continuing Audit for ongoing re-certification requirements.
