Certification in your field—more than a degree or diploma
Students and graduates may be eligible to take certification exams in their fields. Medical assistant students take a CMA review class that prepares them for the Certified Medical Assistant certification exam. They also take a radiology course that prepares them for the Limited Scope of Practice in Radiology exam that can lead to certification by the American Registry of Radiographic Technicians (ARRT). Massage therapy graduates are eligible to take the NCETM certification exam offered by the National Certification Board of Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork, They may also be able to take the MBLEx licensing exam offered by the Federation of States Massage Therapy Board.
Certifications such as these tell prospective employers that you are serious about your career and that you meet nationally recognized standards of practice and patient care. Offering preparation for certification exams is one of the hallmarks of our health science programs.
Hands-on training makes us different
Students learn in state-of-the-art facilities and labs that replicate what they will find when they begin working in the health care industry. They gain hands-on experience through practice during classes and their externships. Because of our practical focus, students have extensive experience when they graduate—experience that sets them apart.
