Medical Assisting
You can learn how to do everything that medical assistants do in our new, state-of-the-art skills lab, where high-tech simulators allow you to practice working with patients.
Our curriculum is aligned with national credentialing standards, to make sure you’ll be competitive and ready to work wherever you go.
And, we make employer relationships a high priority, placing students at externship partners like Sutter Health, Kaiser Permanente and Lifelong Medical Care. These employers also help shape our curriculum, keeping it up-to-date and focused on the things that matter most in our area.
