They get to put everything they've learned
in the classroom and the lab setting together,
and then apply it in the real world.
(Kayla - Student:) We learn phlebotomy,
we learn how to take vitals ...
blood pressures ... pulse ... respirations.
They definitely prepared us well.
The instructors are great, and it's a small class.
There's about 30 of us ...
we got a lot of good hands-on training.
(Tonia:) What we do is ... we have two full semesters
and the last or ... second semester is broken
up into to four weeks of ... clinical at the very end,
so it's 160 hours of externship.

This is a good way to get the foot in the door
