This 90 hour Phlebotomy Technician Program prepares professionals to collect blood specimens from clients for the purpose of laboratory analysis. Students will become familiar with all aspects related to blood collection and develop comprehensive skills to perform venipunctures completely and safely.

The field of phlebotomy has greatly expanded in the past several years, and this team member’s role has recently been brought into sharper focus. Our part-time, 13-week program gives you the skills to collect blood specimens and create a stress-free patient environment.
