Cuesta College Community Programs, in partnership with Boston Reed College, is pleased to announce that three new allied healthcare training programs will be offered this year. The new, not-for-credit programs include training for veterinary assistants, electronic health records systems technologists and pharmacy technicians. These programs are designed to provide fast-paced training to prepare students for the healthcare workforce.

To introduce these new training opportunities, a free online information session will be offered to prospective students.  The information session will address program specifics, including pre-requisites and financial assistance opportunities.

The classes for each of the programs are held on Saturdays or online, beginning in October. Students will also experience a hands-on externship at a local healthcare facility. Textbooks, classroom materials and externship placement fees are included in the program’s registration fee.
