Overview
Our EKG program was developed by medical professionals with years of healthcare experience. Our elite coursework is reverse engineered from the industry’s leading validation, the Certified EKG credential from the National Healthcareer Association.
Our program’s comprehensive training infuses you with the knowledge and simulation experience you need to be prepared to pass the test and add the prestigious credential to your resume. Rich and visual course materials include lots of images, learning games, and highly interactive simulations to help you quickly comprehend—and succeed.
The goal of our EKG program is to position you—immediately upon completion—to start working in the field of EKG . To that end, a 10-hour externship experience is included with your training so you can earn clinical hours and get valuable hands-on experience. Remember that clinical opportunities vary, and we work with a vast network of healthcare organizations to find a good fit. But we can’t guarantee placement—or employment—in your area.
