“I couldn’t have asked for a better first cohort,” Lori Haley, Medical Assistant Program faculty coordinator said. “These eight women showed great patience and hard work. They will be wonderful medical assistants.”
KCC’s new Medical Assistant Program is a 32-credit-hour certificate program offered in a hybrid format with predominantly online classes and minimal visits to campus. The program is among four new Allied Health programs added to KCC’s academic offerings last fall, which also include Computed Tomography (CT), Neurodiagnostic Technologist (EEG) and Surgical Technology programs.
