Some general guidelines can help in the assessment of clinical chemistry training and training programs. A clinical chemist must be, first of all, a good chemist, but to this must be added other knowledge and skills. A program that begins with a bachelor's degree in chemistry equivalent to the American Chemical Society's standards is proposed for the clinical chemistry technologist. The model provides more flexibility as the education proceeds toward the doctoral and postdoctoral levels and as the opportunities and responsibilities become increasingly more diverse. An essential portion of the training at all levels is experience in a clinical laboratory. It is strongly recommended that this be started early and be continued throughout the program. Certification by an independent agency (National Registry in Clinical Chemistry or American Board of Clinical Chemistry) is strongly recommended as a final step in all plans.
一些通用指南有助于临床化学培训及培训项目的评估。首先，临床化学家必须是优秀的化学家，但除此之外还需具备其他知识和技能。对于临床化学技术人员，建议开展一个以等同于美国化学学会标准的化学学士学位为起点的项目。随着教育向博士和博士后阶段推进，以及机会和责任日益多样化，该模式提供了更大的灵活性。各级培训的一个重要部分是临床实验室的经验。强烈建议尽早开始并贯穿整个项目。强烈建议作为所有计划的最后一步，由独立机构（临床化学国家注册处或美国临床化学委员会）进行认证。
