The Accredited Sleep Technologist Education Program (A-STEP) was developed by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) to standardize sleep technologist education and training. By taking a program through a recognized A-STEP provider, trainees gain the education and training required to meet eligibility requirements through two pathway options with the BRPT registry exams.
Depending on the pathway, A-STEP can be completed as either an comprehensive online introductory course or through a program of online self-study program. A-Step providers are responsible for administering exams and awarding designations to successful candidates. MRG has been an A-STEP provider since 2015.
Who the courses are for:
We offer BRPT’s Focused 2 sleep technology training to prepare individuals who plan to challenge the Certified Polysomnographic Technician (CPSGT) credentialing exam. This is an entry-level certification earned by individuals new to the sleep field. The CPSGT certificate is valid only for three years and cannot be renewed. This training is also taken for the Registered Polysomnographic Technician (RPSGT) credentialing exam.
The Self Study Program is designed for individuals who have foundational knowledge of sleep and experience in the sleep lab. The Self Study Program is required to challenge both the Certified Polysomnographic Technician (CPSGT) and the Registered Polysomnographic Technician (RPSGT) credentialing exams. The RPSGT credential is recognized internationally and represents the highest certification in the field for health care professionals who clinically assess patients with sleep disorders.
MRG offers programs that are certified and endorsed by the Board of Registered Polysomnographic Technologists (BRPT). We have been a Sleep Training Approved Resource (STAR) since 2011. In 2015 we were granted certification as a qualified A-STEP Provider by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM).
MRG is recognized as a Sleep Training Approved Resource (STAR) by the Board of Registered Polysomnographic Technologists (BRPT). We have been a Star-designed education partner since 2012 This allows us to establish candidate eligibility for the RPSGT, CPSGT & CCSH exams. Both our Focused 2 Sleep Technology Training program and Self-Study program are recognized.
MRG instructors and course developers are accredited in sleep technology and/or sleep medicine, respiratory care, electro neuro diagnostics, or their specialty field.

Who the courses are for:
MRG is an approved provider for the Canadian Network for Respiratory Care (CNRC) health education courses and offers the Professional Respiratory Educator Program (PREP) to prepare individuals who wish to challenge the Certified Respiratory Educator (CRE) credentialing exam.
The Certified Respiratory Educator (CRE) credential recognizes healthcare professionals who provide respiratory education to their clients, including education in both asthma and COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease). Upon receiving this credential, these individuals have the competencies to provide comprehensive, evidence-informed care in asthma and COPD.
This course is approved for delivery by Canadian Network for Respiratory Care and offered in collaboration with SAIT, a global leader in post-secondary education.
The STAR course really filled the gap of missing knowledge about sleep, its diagnostic measures and its application in day-to-day interactions with patients. Even the specific knowledge about PSG now I think it “makes sense” to have although I am not actually working as a PSGT. I can’t speak on behalf of people that work for SFL, but in my opinion, this course is great for them too as they are our frontline troops. Before I attended the course, I merely thought we are doing this only because we need to as a requirement from CSPA. Now, I do think that we do need the knowledge.
