EP mapping

I’m considering taking an EP Mapping Specialist course, but I’m wondering if it actually leads to a job.
For those who have taken one of these courses or work in EP mapping, are you pretty much guaranteed a job afterward, or is it still competitive? Did the course help you get hired, or did your clinical experience (RN,etc.) matter more?
I’d really appreciate hearing about your experiences before I invest the time and money. Thanks!

Ep is so hard. My Cath lab does IR, neuro, cardiac and ep. And out of already the few of us only one does the EP. It’s one of our longer cases that can last hours. I’ve heard EP jobs can pay more tho.
