Whether you're a beginner or advancing your studies, they break down key factors to consider in your journey.

First Impressions Matter:

  • Assess how responsive a school is during initial contact.

  • Look for schools that offer personal connections, such as Zoom meetings, to evaluate their fit for your educational goals.

Accreditation is Crucial:

  • These connections lend credibility and provide professional support.

Course Structure & Content:

  • Understand the distinction between foundational and advanced certifications.

  • Ensure programs include essential components like anatomy and physiology.


Instructor Expertise:

  • Research the qualifications and teaching styles of instructors.

  • Ensure their background aligns with your learning style and goals.
