3 Student-Focused Workforce Training Programs for Careers in High-Demand

Case managers know that those looking for a big career change need training and certification to land their first job in a new industry. But many training programs seem designed to make money rather than helping students succeed. 

Long-term success, especially in an in-demand career, requires more than just passing on information. Students need to work closely with mentors within the school to help them facilitate their job searches and support their transitions.

Having in-depth knowledge of student-focused training programs can help clients begin their paths to success. MedCerts offers many certification initiatives in some of the most sought-after industries that can be paid for completely by WIOA programs.

The key is to find a program that can be funded within the workforce allocation, while also offering the high-quality training and support necessary to get your clients' careers on a fast track. 

Student Support Drives Success

Many student-focused programs are online, as this can provide the flexibility many people need to complete the necessary work. Unlike traditional schools or community colleges, these high-tech learning options make sure students will benefit from comprehensive support on top of their certification.

MedCerts offers:

• One-on-one mentorship
• Strategic, customized job placement
• A nationwide network throughout the fastest-growing industries
• Opportunities for internships and apprenticeships that can get students in the door
• Exam preparation help

Anyone looking to change careers should know that guidance and a network for connections are required to start and advance within any industry.

IT Support Professional

In just ten weeks, students could be prepared to obtain the CompTIA IT Fundamentals (ITF) and A+ certifications to become an IT Support Professional. This training is the perfect starting place for someone looking to start a lifelong career in information technology.

Medication Care Coordinator

As a medication care coordinator, clients will serve as liaisons between clinicians and pharmacists to ensure patient safety and help people feel better faster. This important role makes medication-related therapies more effective. Once students are certified, they are able to continue in their careers toward becoming certified pharmacy technicians or certified medical administrative assistants as well.

Phlebotomy Technician

An essential part of any healthcare facility, phlebotomy technicians draw blood and other specimens to be analyzed for testing. This may mean interacting with patients on an intimate level and ensuring procedures are done safely and accurately. After an 11-week training course, your clients will play a vital role in diagnosing and treating patients.
