Medical Assistant

The 9 month program prepares students to sit for the AMT Registered Medical Assistant certification.

It prepares graduates for positions in:

• Clinics
• Doctor’s offices
• Hospitals

Students learn the administrative and clinical needs of the medical profession, to include documentation and billing. Emphasis is placed on developing management and communication skills. Additionally, students are educated on medical law and ethics, as well as medical terminology. The importance of ethical patient care and confidentiality is stressed. Instructors conduct hands-on training in each course. Students can further expect to expand their experience through field trips and guest speakers.

As with all CTE programs, heavy emphasis is placed on preparation for work in the industry, with regular discussions of what employers look for, how to get and keep a job, resume preparation, mock interviews, post-interview follow-up and networking skills. Our employment consultants provide referrals for part-time jobs while students are in school.

The Medical Assistant program at CTE offers an optimal program with a focus on the needs of the medical professional. The goal is having graduates employed in their career field in less than a year’s time with the training CTE provides at an affordable price.
