MALTA — The Kishwaukee College Continuing Education department is holding a free Information Session on Short-Term Training Programs on Wednesday, Nov. 14 from 6 – 7 p.m. in Room C1209 at the college.
Short-Term Training refers to non-credit programs that prepare students for a variety of entry-level positions. The programs range from fourteen to twenty weeks of training and prepare students to not only work in their field but also successfully pass their national certification exam. Completion of a Short-Term Training Program is the entry way into a career path that requires a skilled, entry-level position.
Programs
The five programs that will be covered in the Information Session on Nov. 14 are: Dental Assistant, Phlebotomy Technician, Pharmacy Technician, Sterile Processing Technician, and Veterinary Assistant.
Dental assistants are healthcare professionals who provide quality preventative and corrective dental care under the direct supervision of a dentist or dental hygienist. Dental assistants are responsible for assisting with patient care as well as providing administrative support to the office.
Phlebotomy technicians are healthcare professionals who obtain and prepare specimens for laboratory processing. Traditionally, Phlebotomist Technicians are associated with drawing and preparing blood in hospitals, clinics, or physician’s offices. However, Phlebotomists can be employed in a wide variety of fields that work with any bodily fluids that can be laboratory tested.
