SAN ANTONIO, TX, March 27, 2009 /Technical PR News/ -- Practice Management Institute (PMI) and Global Corporate College today announced plans to address high unemployment with affordable, short-term, flexible career training aimed at helping Americans get back to work. Three certification programs for medical office professionals are being added to the curriculum at leading colleges across the country in time for summer and fall enrollment.
"Coding, billing, and office management professionals who want to recession-proof their skills are encouraged to seek out targeted training that will keep them at the top of their game," said Douglas O'Dell, President and CEO of Practice Management Institute. "During tough economic times, health care tends to fair better than other industries. This college partnership will give more people access to training that will improve their employability."
The U. S. Department of Labor anticipates a growth of 18-26 percent over the next ten years for medical secretaries with a median hourly rate of $14. This series of classes and certification programs, made possible by the new college partnership, will specifically target the training needs of health care professionals who want to remain competitive in today's volatile job market.
"Global Corporate College is very excited about the opportunity each of our network schools has in working with an agency such as PMI," said Denise Reading, President and CEO, Global Corporate College.
