While PICC training is certainly not a required part of your training, the popularity of PICCs is making PICC training almost a necessity. PICCs are different from other CVADs and require specific techniques for peripheral access and tips to increase your success. At PICC Excellence, we recommend that you take the Basic Modified Seldinger Technique class as it is the technique that is most consistent with central line insertion practices. Whether you decide to take an actual class with an instructor or take a self-study class, you will benefit greatly by learning the specifics of this most popular vascular access device.
