• Fundamental principles of Immunohematology, including ABO blood type interpretations
• Preparation, handling, and storage of blood bank reagents
• Genetic Principles of ABO and Rh Blood groups
• Major antigens of other blood group systems and identification methods
• Compatibility testing and component selection
• Quality control of blood bank reagents and equipment
