CERTIFIED MEDICAL ASSISTANT

Apprenticeship Program

The Certified Medical Assistant program will prepare you for a wide range of career opportunities and our instructors draw on their knowledge and experience to ensure student success. 

Developing Skills for Success

Because this profession is very people-centered, The Certified Medical Assistant Apprenticeship program courses are not offered online. After completing the exhortative courses in the program and learning all of their skills, certified medical assistant apprenticeship program participants perform a 160-hour internship at a local physician’s office or clinic.  Classes for the program are held at the Teaching Our Youth Excellence Nonprofit Organization located at 2451 W. Grapevine Mills Circle #615,  Grapevine, TX 76051. 

Professional Organizations

Students in the program are eligible to join the American Association of Medical Assistants and the Dallas chapter of the Texas Society of Medical Assistants at special student rates. Students who join these organizations find that the interaction with practicing, professional medical assistants is helpful in finding employment, engaging in meaningful dialogue and learning directly from those in the field.
