"The Medical Specialties program prepares students for entry-level employment as medical assistants with practical radiology, billing/coding, and laboratory skills. The student is also prepared for a career as an entry-level pharmacy technician, home health aide, and as a medical receivables and coding professional. Objectives of the program include preparing students for possible certification or licensing in various medical specialties; however, students should be aware that in most cases additional training and/or clinical experience will be required to sit for certain certification or licensure examinations."
I'm wondering if the student has the state required minimum classroom hours for each certification and how do they get their clinicals for each subject needing clinicals and do they take the State tests to become a Pharmacy Tech, HHA, CNA, MA, Billing/Coding, and for all the other courses that are in the AOS plan and then they are certified for all of the above? Do the students do online State testing?
