Our Clinical Medical Assistant Program is a hybrid program split up into four components that take approximately 4 months to complete. Students will spend the first three components of the course in a hybrid learning setting where you do not come to campus every day but rather have two online live sessions with your class and instructor during the week. The fourth and final component of the course is the live lab portion and is on campus 5 days a week. Students will then have the opportunity to complete an externship of their own design. With our curriculum, once a student completes all four components and their externship, they are then eligible to sit for the NCCT National certification exam for both Medical Assistant and Medical Office Assistant.
