Mott Community College (MCC) Workforce and Economic Development Division and MedCerts, a pioneer in online healthcare and IT certification training, have forged a unique alliance. This collaboration, the first of its kind in Michigan, aims to revolutionize Allied Health education. By leveraging MedCerts’ cutting-edge short-term online programmes and content, MCC will open new doors for students aspiring to enter critical healthcare roles.
This strategic alliance is set to transform healthcare education by offering students the opportunity to gain practical skills and certifications as Medical Scribes and EKG Technicians. The programme, designed in a hybrid format, will blend online coursework with a hands-on externship component. This unique approach ensures that students not only acquire theoretical knowledge but also develop the practical skills necessary for success in the healthcare industry.
Focusing on certifications in high-demand Allied healthcare and IT areas, MedCerts delivers career training through HD-quality video-based instruction, virtual simulations, games, animations, and more. In 2023, the platform launched its Partner Solutions brand focused on building partnerships to bridge the gap between our students, job seekers, employers, higher education institutions and workforce agencies. This new brand includes several partnership models, including recruitment, reseller, content licensing options and more.
