Are you an international professional?
Temporary Status by Qualification (TSQ) is a credentialing program
that allows international professionals without US or Canadian clinical
experience to demonstrate their knowledge of laboratory science by taking
a National Credentialing Agency (NCA) examination. The TSQ credential
is a temporary credential valid for 4 years that is granted to qualifying
individuals who pass the examination. During that time, the individual
may find domestic clinical experience with the aid of TSQ as evidence
of entry-level job knowledge. Upon presentation of acceptable domestic
clinical experience as specified in the NCA eligibility requirements,
the TSQ credential will be converted to the appropriate NCA certificate.
