    Our Medical Assistant Program is designed to prepare a student to become a Medical Assistant with a short yet comprehensive course of study. A medical assistant assists doctors with administrative procedures such as answering the telephone, scheduling appointments, bookkeeping, filing, insurance forms, and basic insurance billing. Medical Assistants also assist doctors in clinical procedures such as vital signs, injections, blood draws, basic lab tests, administration of medications, minor surgeries, and positioning patients for examinations. Instruction will include a basic overview of the administration of the medical office, anatomy, and physiology of the body systems, and clinical components, utilizing didactic and hands-on practice.

    The didactic lecture covers the theory of every subject associated with the front and back office. Laboratory instruction provides hands-on training associated with listed clinical and administrative procedures, verified through a skills check-off system.

    Upon successful completion of the didactic portion of the program, students are required to complete 160 hours of externship. After successful completion of their externship, students will have the opportunity to take the national certification exam through the National Healthcareer Association (NHA) to become a Certified Clinical Medical Assistant. Class is fast paced and intense. Please be aware that missing classes may prevent you from receiving certification.  Looking for more information about the program? View or information slides here. 

    Industry Outlook: According to The Bureau of Labor Statistics, the need for Certified Clinical Medical Assistants will increase by 15% between 2023 and 2033 due to replacing workers retiring from the field or transitioning into another area of the medical field. The average yearly salary for a certified medical assistant is $59,424 a year which increases with a certification in other areas of the medical field such as phlebotomy or EKG Technician.

    Our Medical Assistant Program is designed to prepare a student to become a Medical Assistant with a short yet comprehensive course of study. A medical assistant assists doctors with administrative procedures such as answering the telephone, scheduling appointments, bookkeeping, filing, insurance forms, and basic insurance billing. Medical Assistants also assist doctors in clinical procedures such as vital signs, injections, blood draws, basic lab tests, administration of medications, minor surgeries, and positioning patients for examinations. Instruction will include a basic overview of the administration of the medical office, anatomy, and physiology of the body systems, and clinical components, utilizing didactic and hands-on practice.

    The didactic lecture covers the theory of every subject associated with the front and back office. Laboratory instruction provides hands-on training associated with listed clinical and administrative procedures, verified through a skills check-off system.

    Upon successful completion of the didactic portion of the program, students are required to complete 160 hours of externship. After successful completion of their externship, students will have the opportunity to take the national certification exam through the National Healthcareer Association (NHA) to become a Certified Clinical Medical Assistant. Class is fast paced and intense. Please be aware that missing classes may prevent you from receiving certification.  Looking for more information about the program? View or information slides here. 

    Industry Outlook: According to The Bureau of Labor Statistics, the need for Certified Clinical Medical Assistants will increase by 15% between 2023 and 2033 due to replacing workers retiring from the field or transitioning into another area of the medical field. The average yearly salary for a certified medical assistant is $59,424 a year which increases with a certification in other areas of the medical field such as phlebotomy or EKG Technician.

    Requirements: Students must be 18 years or older and have either a high school diploma or a GED certificate or equivilent

    Medical Assistant Program Road Map:

    • 200 Hours of Hybrid Didactic (160 hours online lecture + 40 hours in-person clinical)

    office employees discussing a project

    A project manager’s mission is to bring ideas to life in a professional setting; they are the facilitator and coordinator of teams that have been assigned to deliver something of value to an organization. Therefore, project managers require leadership and critical thinking skills in order to bring the experiences of many together, taking great ideas and turning them into reality. During this course, you will work in small teams throughout to apply what is being taught in simple case studies. When the course is complete, you will have the confidence and skills needed to deliver immediate value, and you will earn professional development hours should you decide to pursue your PMP® certification.

    For those new to project management, you will come away with…

    • the knowledge and skills to lead smaller projects with a low degree of complexity and risk.
    • the basics of the project management discipline,
    • having practiced different methods and tools and built a tool chest ready to apply to your first project management assignment.
    • 20 professional development hours towards your PMP® certification requirement

    For seasoned project managers, you will…

    • earn 20 professional development hours to apply in obtaining or maintaining a certification
    • (For people that engage as stakeholders) fine-tune critical thinking skills that focus on projects
    • build insight into problem areas to be watchful of
    • learn how to ask more pointed questions.

    Career Outlook:

    Project managers with formal training and credentials stand out in the market. The Project Management Professional (PMP®) credential is considered the global gold standard in certifications, but obtaining this credential requires formal project management training and demonstrated experience in the discipline.

    Based on the 2023 salary survey performed by the Project Management Institute (PMI®), 66% of respondents reported compensation increases over the past twelve months, with 61% stating greater than 5% increases. In the United States, the median income of project managers without a PMP® was reported to be $90,000 and with a PMP® $130,000.

    Included Resources:

    Included in the course tuition is a flash drive containing new tools to use while starting your careers in project management. The instructor becomes a part of your professional network via LinkedIn and email.

    Discover the rich natural and cultural heritage of the Mount Diablo Range and East Bay Hills in this California Naturalist course. Through a blend of online classes with guest lectures, and in-person field trips, participants explore the region’s diverse habitats—from oak woodlands and chaparral to serpentine grasslands—while learning about its geology, ecology, and deep cultural significance to Indigenous peoples. Participants who complete the course are certified as UC California Naturalists and are eligible for 4 undergraduate units through UC Davis.   

    Within the framework of the UC Environmental Stewards, this course combines science, service and place-based learning.

    You will engage in:

    • Science curriculum exploring the geology, soils, hydrology, vegetation communities and wildlife of the Mount Diablo Range;

    • Field trips and hands-on investigation at local natural areas in the East Bay hills to directly observe and document ecological patterns;

    • Guest lectures and community science projects that link you to ongoing conservation, restoration and citizen-science efforts in the region;

    • Project-based learning that empowers you to design or participate in stewardship activities—whether monitoring a sensitive species, mapping habitat change, or assisting a local land-trust initiative.
       

    By the end of the course, you will not only have gained a strong foundation in the natural history and ecology of this unique California landscape, but you will also be prepared to take an active role in natural resource conservation, education, and restoration.
