Health Professions
Spring classes begin January 12th
Richland College offers 10 healthcare certificate programs to produce job-ready individuals who fulfill the needs of healthcare employers in our community. Students may attend part-time or full-time, days or evenings, and pay as they go. All these programs may be completed in one year or less. Some require that students have a high school diploma or GED. Proficiency in written and spoken English, math, keyboarding and word processing skills are also important. Some programs require a criminal background check and drug screening.

Students are strongly encouraged to attend one of our information sessions before meeting with a program coordinator. We can serve you better, answer all of your questions, and expedite your admission and registration if you first attend a group meeting.
All courses except CPR, recertification classes and exam reviews require the Admission Coordinator's signature for registration.
