Washburn Tech's Phlebotomy certificate program was created in response to high area demand for trained phlebotomists. This one-semester, 9-credit-hour program is designed to prepare you to sit for the credentialing exam offered by the American Medical Technologist organization. This new program replaced the current apprenticeship model of phlebotomy training utilized by area hospitals and will provide a trained workforce to the medical community. Current on-the-job training requires a significant amount of time and resources from the hiring agency which often results in higher than average turnover. As a result, this new model allows training to take place prior to employment. Please note: this program is not eligible for financial aid, but scholarship opportunities are available. To enroll in the summer session you must turn 17 years of age by June 1. To enroll in the fall session, you must turn 17 by October 1. And, to enroll in the spring session you must turn 17 by March 1.
