I got the job! I am so ready to start my new career as a Medical Assistant at a local orthopedic’s group.
Emily M., Medical Assistant-AdministrativeI got the JOB!! I was afraid to step outside my comfort zone until I enrolled at Pennco Tech. Opportunities are rarely offered; making a big life change is pretty scary but know what’s even scarier? Regret – So make the best out of it and move forward – I can say that I made the best decision by enrolling in the Medical Assistant Program. I’m now an Employee at Jefferson Hospital
Kastiani G., Medical Assistant-AdministrativeMy name is Shannon and I am an employee at Lower Bucks Hospital as an ER Technician. My job entails taking vitals, doing EKGs, drawing blood, helping nurses take IV lines in or out, helping patients with mobility helping nurses transport patients among much else. Overall great place to work! Great start to get your foot in the door.
Shannon H., Medical Assistant-AdministrativeI got Certified as a Medical Assistant and I loved every day I went to school I graduated with honors passed my test and I have a wonderful job.
Nelida B., Medical Assistant-AdministrativeI learned Medical Assisting and they also train you for your CPR and First Aid Certification through American Red Cross which was professional and a plus. I took advantage of the career services Teresa whom helped me perfect my resume and apply for job opportunities was great. Shortly after I landed an entry level job as a Medical Assistant a week before my graduation. Even half a year later I still was able to contact Victor who helped me find my loan servicer and he was very helpful and nice . It’s been a great progression from then till now and it’s only getting better. I definitely choose the right path. I love helping others and I’m making great earnings. It’s all about how you apply yourself and your willingness to strive for your purpose.
Sophia T., Medical Assistant-Administrative“They empowered me to feel strong and independent. Despite jobs that say they are for men or women, that’s not the case at Pennco Tech.”
