Moving Forward in Health care Education

Modern Technology School first enrolled students in September 1981.

Modern Technology School first taught X-Ray Technology-Limited Permit, and then added a Medical Assisting-Back Office component to enable its graduates to qualify for starting positions in a contemporary job market. The Diagnostic Medical Sonography program was then added at the North Hollywood Campus, September 1988.

In order to meet the educational needs of other communities in Southern California, Modern Technology School established a satellite campus in Anaheim in 1988. The Anaheim Campus also added Ultrasound to its curriculum in September 1990. In May of 1991 the Anaheim campus became a freestanding school. The Anaheim Campus further expanded its facilities in December 1992. In July 1993, the North Hollywood Campus was sold leaving the Anaheim campus as the only Modern Technology School campus. In its continuing efforts to bring forth quality educational opportunities, a combined 18-month program in Ultrasound/Vascular Technology was added in November 1995.

In October 2005 MTS relocated to Fountain Valley, CA.
