“MedCerts is an excellent online school to attend. You have full 24 hours a day access to log into your classes/ 7 days a week. At your own convenience. The courses are broken down into several sections for easy learning. For example, the course that am currently enrolled in, Medical Front Office & Administration, is broken down into 4-sections for a better understanding of this entire course of study. You are given a course schedule that tells you when you should be starting the next week of lessons, if you finished up early with week 1 then you were able to go ahead and start week 2, because you are working at your own pace. I highly recommend that you give MedCerts a chance.”
