The objective of this program is to prepare graduates for a wide variety of entry level office positions.  Although healthcare related clinical skills are emphasized, the office skills component provides career flexibility allowing the graduate to work in a wide variety of offices such as doctors’ offices, clinics, health care facilities, physical therapy facilities, insurance offices, and other health care related facilities.  The curriculum in this short-term program is limited to basic skills; so graduates may need additional training and/or experience to qualify for some positions.  The completion of this program could also be used as an opportunity to maintain existing employment or advance in a career.
