We have developed the curriculum to match employers' needs and allow learners to build the practical skills that business leaders seek in applicants. Graduates of this program will be able to demonstrate their capabilities that can distinguish them from others and set themselves up for success.

Our Legal Administrative Assistant diploma program can prepare individuals for positions in law firms, public or private corporations, and other organizations that require the specialized skills that are valued by attorneys and corporate legal departments. Students will learn how to conduct legal research in law libraries or online, analyze cases and decisions based on unique elements, and how to draft the documents and gather evidence for trial preparation. Graduates of the program will have increased their critical thinking skills and office technology applications within the legal arena.

Upon completion of the 770 hour Massage Therapy diploma program, graduates will be prepared to sit for the National Certification Exam for Therapeutic Massage and for the Massage and Bodywork Licensing Examination. The program includes hands-on training in Swedish massage, hot stone/spa techniques, deep tissue/trigger points, and myofascial release routines. Graduates of the program can choose to work in chiropractic clinics, physical therapy facilities, luxury hotels or cruise ships, or independently as their own boss. The demand for licensed and certified massage therapists is expected to grow so the career opportunities will likely remain strong for individuals with the skills to help people relax in our fast-paced society.

Individuals who would like to become part of a professional health care team without working directly hands-on with patients can earn a diploma in our Medical Administrative Assistant program. Students will learn medical terminology, front office procedures, and laws and ethics relating to patient's rights to privacy. Skilled assistants perform tasks that are critical to running an office such as scheduling appointments, transcribing doctors' notes, handling verbal and written communications, and billing insurance claims with the proper codes for processing.
