The medical
assisting program at Lakeland Community
College is a 12 month  Medical
Assisting Certificate program. Students
are admitted once a year in the fall semester. Courses
on campus consist of clinical and administrative
medical assisting courses as well as related
health science and
general education courses. During
the summer session, the student participates
in a practicum at an affiliated clinical
site, putting into practice those skills
learned in the previous semesters.
Students
who cannot attend full time may take
the required
courses over a longer period of time, usually
two years. A student who chooses
this route should verify plans with a counselor
or the program director. |
