Phlebotomy Certificate – Non-Credit

About Our Program

Phlebotomists are specially trained professional members of the healthcare delivery team whose primary responsibility is to collect blood specimens from patients for diagnostic testing.

This comprehensive 190-hour program consists of 70 classroom hours and a 120-hour practicum to be completed at a local facility. This program is a one-semester learning experience, designed to prepare students for an entry-level position in phlebotomy and laboratory support services. Students learn through a combination of theory and laboratory practice, including instruction in venipuncture, skin puncture, special blood collections, specimen handling, waived laboratory testing, and all regulations governing safety and infection control practices.

The 120-hour clinical field placements will be held as full-time positions following the initial 10 weeks of in-class instruction. The student’s actual work schedule will be determined by the assigned clinical site.

This training course has selective admissions requirements with specific criteria and deadlines. Students must provide a completed health form including proof of immunizations and attend an intake session to complete a CORI (criminal background check) and other important documents. Acceptance is based upon successful completion of the student intake process at least two weeks prior to the course start date.

Upon successful completion of the course, students will receive a certificate documenting completed course hours and will be eligible to sit for the national test offered through the American Society of Phlebotomy Technicians (ASPT).
