What NGHI Offers

AMCA-Accredited Training

Every program is built around AMCA's certification standards, so what you learn on campus is exactly what your exam — and your employer — expect.

Instructors Who Work the Job

Every lead instructor still works in the field they teach — small classes, real clinical equipment, and answers from people doing it today.

Hands-On From Day One

Phlebotomy, casting, EKGs, patient care — you're practicing on real equipment in a real lab, not just reading about it.

Job-Ready in Weeks

Certify in as little as 2 to 24 weeks, sit your exam on campus as an authorized Pearson VUE testing site, and start applying with a real credential.
