Education:

        Taking courses in electronics at community colleges or technical schools can be beneficial to aspiring surveillance technicians.

Reflection:

          No I don’t think I would like to be a Medical Surveillance Technician. I wouldn’t like to become one of these because it doesn’t seem very interesting or something I would like to do. They don’t get paid a lot so I don’t think I would be a Medical Surveillance Technician.
