Train For One of Georgia’s Fastest-Growing Medical Careers at Lincoln Tech

Thinking about starting on the road to a new career?  Think about following your passion and striving for a career that makes a direct impact on people’s lives.  Think about a field that’s projected to grow.  Think about the healthcare industry, and about the Medical Assisting profession!

A changing healthcare environment has transformed how patients are seen in doctor’s offices and other healthcare facilities.  If you’ve ever seen a doctor who’s overbooked, understaffed, unable to put the time in to sit down with patients and answer their questions, you know the importance of Medical Assistants!  In this growing field, you can work hand-in-hand with doctors while helping care for patients and making an entire healthcare team run smoothly and efficiently.

On December 1st and December 15th, you can take your first step toward launching a career as a Medical Assistant by beginning a hands-on training program at the Atlanta campus of Lincoln College of Technology in Marietta!  The state of Georgia has a demonstrated need for trained, qualified Medical Assistants: the field is ranked as the 13th-fastest growing job in Georgia, and 10th highest among medical professions.  Opportunities for Medical Assistants are projected to grow 50% across the state from 2012-2022, more than three times the statewide average for all jobs.  This translates into more than 1,200 new positions opening annually during that time*, and it means a wealth of new opportunities for you!

In Lincoln’s Medical Assistant program, you’ll receive academic and technical training in laboratories, our hands-on Doctor’s Office Classroom, and Lincoln’s Virtual Medical Office.  The Medical Assistant training program includes everything from taking vital signs and maintaining patient charts to patient billing and medical office management.  You’ll graduate with the clinical and administrative skills needed to succeed in today’s dynamic healthcare environment.
