Our Medical Assistant program is designed to teach you both administrative and clinical procedures. In addition to learning front office procedures and terminology, you'll be ready to prepare patients for examinations, back office clinical procedures and routine laboratory work. The program is a mix between theory and clinical, with students learning the theory first then applying what they’ve learned in our Skills Lab. At the end of the program, students will be placed in a selection of medical offices, hospitals, or clinics for one hundred and sixty (160) hours of externship. This means, all of the skills and theories learned and tested at school are going to be put to use in real world situations.
