Program Spotlight
MEDICAL ASSISTING
Starting Fall 2014, Medical Assisting, will join the other career and technical education healthcare programs at DCTS.
This is a great educational program/career choice for people interested in the healthcare field, but may not necessarily want to primarily provide direct patient care.
Medical assistants perform administrative and certain clinical duties under the direction of a physician. People who work in this occupation generally are interested in working & communicating with people, value routines, and practical hands-on problems and solutions, learn more about being a Medical Assistant here.
