“Having a smaller class really helps the studnets and instructor collaborate more to ensure everyone is understanding the material. We are able to ask questions and have in-depth discussions during lectures.”
“The MLT program is a good fit for me. I enjoy science and lab work. This program allows me to do what I love by learning about science and grow in the medical field. I have learned so much and look forward to working as a Medical Laboratory Technician.”
“I have always envisioned myself working in patient care, but was never quite sure where. After having several imaging procedures done, I became fascinated with the field and the processes behind a non-invasive look into one's anatomy to aid in increasing their quality of life.”
“The HIM program helped to prepare me for the current role I am in now. The teachers are wonderful and always there to help you out along the way. I am currently working in the medical staff office as an enrollment/credentialing specialist. I work to complete and maintain enrollments for providers in our health system.”
