Starting this November, students can enrol in a trio of courses aimed at helping them prepare for employment in this industry.
ABT-020 Online Learner Success is a pre-requisite course that prepares students for NIC’s online Office Administration programs and courses.
After successfully completing ABT-020, students can then take ABT-182 Medical Terminology I and ABT-183 Medical Terminology II, each aimed at providing students with introductory medical terminology knowledge for clerical roles in the health sector.
“These courses are a great first step towards getting prepared for clerical positions in the health care industry,” said Department Chair Richelle Gardiner-Hynds. “If you already have office experience, these courses are then a great way to add to your existing office qualifications.”
The course schedule is as follows:
- ABT-020 Online Learner Success – Nov. 12, 2019 – Nov. 22, 2019
- ABT-182 Medical Terminology I – Nov. 25, 2019 – Jan. 10, 2020
