Program Overview

What Is the CCMA Program?

Working in the clinical area of the medical field and closely assisting providers in numerous exams and procedures, clinical medical assistants are a crucial part of the healthcare industry. From taking vital signs, to administering injections and medications, and even performing EKG or other essential laboratory procedures, the medical assistant is often the first and last person a patient interacts with — making a lasting impact on the patient experience.

In our training program, participants learn about core elements of medical assisting, including Foundational Knowledge and Basic Science, Anatomy and Physiology, Clinical Patient Care (taking vital signs, performing EKG/phlebotomy), Patient Care Coordination and Education, and Administrative Assisting.

Upon completion, you’ll be fully prepared to sit for the National Healthcareer Association (NHA) CCMA national certification exam. Exam prep book is included in the program, and a required hands-on clinical component ensures you’re ready for the real world.

Medical administrative assistants are critical in keeping healthcare offices running smoothly and play an important role in the patient experience. This program teaches the fundamentals of administrative duties, reviewing and answering practice correspondence, operating computer systems to accomplish office tasks, calls, and schedule appointments. The course also includes updating and maintaining patient and other practice-specific information and coordinating operations reports such as time and attendance.

Upon completion, you’ll be fully prepared to sit for the National Healthcareer Association (NHA) CMAA national certification exam — one of the most recognized credentials in medical administration. Our instructors guide you through every topic on the exam and provide practice tests so you walk in ready to pass.
