Advance my knowledge & skills
What would you all suggest to be the best way to further advance my knowledge and skills in this field? ...Advanced Boot Camp's...is there such a animal as "shadowing"? ...or even internships? My employer will not cover any expenses so $$$ is a factor for me.

I would also suggest shadowing if you can do that at another hospital in your area. You may also want to check to see if there is a local ACDIS chapter in your area. That will give you networking opportunities and perhaps even open up a few job shadowing opportunities for you as well.
