Healthcare Pathway


If you are interested in working in medical careers, you can choose the Healthcare Pathway. The Healthcare pathway offers training in direct patient care such as Nursing, Dental Hygiene, and Veterinary Technology work. It also offers career training in related fields such as Medical Billing, Pharmacy Technician, and Radiology. Experts in the many degrees and certificates can help you choose which degree or certificate will best lead to your ultimate goal. If you are interested in becoming a doctor, dentist, or veterinarian, you should choose the STEM Pathway .

As with all the pathways, you may move to a different pathway at any time. If you so choose, an advisor can help you.
