Description

At Northwest Career College, the Medical Assistant program weaves together online lectures with intensive hands-on training over 9 transformative months. Under program chair Corey Delpino's guidance, students immerse themselves in 7 months of comprehensive online coursework that balances digital learning with practical lab sessions.

Here, future medical professionals master the foundations of healthcare, from precise vital sign measurements to conducting essential lab work like urine analysis, glucose testing, and rapid strep screenings.

The program goes beyond clinical skills, recognizing that exceptional healthcare requires both technical expertise and genuine patient connection. Students develop the invaluable art of patient communication, professional etiquette, and team collaboration.

This holistic approach culminates in a 2-month externship, where students apply their skills in real healthcare settings. Our graduates emerge as confident, skilled Medical Assistants who understand both the science of healthcare and the human side of medicine.
