Job Summary

In this role, you’ll inspire future healthcare professionals by combining your medical expertise with your ability to guide and mentor students through practical, hands‑on education. Instructor positions are part‑time with classes held primarily on Saturdays between 7:00 am–6:15 pm (note: teaching schedules may vary based on morning and/or afternoon class availability; some locations may offer weekday evening classes). Our focused, 18‑week program is designed to provide accessible, hands‑on education to students from all walks of life. Classes take place directly in a doctor’s office rather than in a traditional classroom—allowing students to learn in the environment they will eventually work in. Instructors will use their clinical experience and training to teach our students the skills they need to succeed as entry‑level medical assistants.

Requirements
