Build A Skilled & Stable Workforce

MedCerts has collaborated with The University of Phoenix to make building registered apprenticeship programs easier than ever.

Solve Staffing Challenges

It’s now easier than ever for employers to build a skilled and stable workforce through the use of registered apprenticeship programs (RAPs).

As a healthcare employer, you know firsthand the challenges of attracting and retaining top talent in a competitive industry. RAPs can be a valuable solution to these challenges by providing structured, on-the-job training that leads to improved skills and better client outcomes. In addition, RAPs can help reduce turnover and decrease recruitment costs for healthcare employers
