About This Program

Every hospital, clinic, and lab needs skilled phlebotomists. This focused certification gets you working quickly in a role with excellent job security.

Without proper blood collection, doctors cannot diagnose conditions or monitor treatments - that's how essential your role becomes. Phlebotomy offers flexible scheduling, part-time opportunities, and the chance to work in diverse settings from hospitals to mobile blood drives.

California requires phlebotomists to be certified through CDPH. Our program prepares you to meet all state requirements and pass the certification examination. Many students combine this with other certifications for even greater marketability.
