Description

Training staff must have the required education and experience to appropriately teach the program content. Examples of education and experience include, but are not limited to, certificates and/or degrees from postsecondary institutions; certifications from industry-recognized agencies, and practical work experience in, or in a field closely related to, the career fields the program prepares students to enter. MedCerts confirms each training staff member’s academic background and work experience to ensure they are qualified to teach in the program.

The HI-6600 Medical Laboratory Assistant program prepares students to be responsible for collecting blood, tissue, and other samples from patients, and preparing samples for testing and analyses. This program is designed to develop knowledge and understanding of medical terminology, lab rules and regulations, and universal precautions for a clinical laboratory.

 

Graduates of this program are prepared to sit for the Certified Medical Lab Assistant (CM LA) certification exam, offered by American Medical Technologists (AMT). MedCerts graduates are eligible to take the exam and will earn provisional certification upon passing. Once employed as a Lab Assistant, graduates will gain the 120 hours of documented, approved clinical laboratory experience required for the grant of full certification. Graduates are also eligible for a secondary certification, Certified Phlebotomy Technician (CPT), offered through the National Healthcareer Association (NHA). The CPT certification requires 30 venipunctures and 10 capillary sticks on a live person. As with the CMLA, upon passing the CPT exam candidates are kept in provisional status until these clinical requirements have been met.
