Abstract

The ACT Program offers a way to earn valuable certificates in Health Care and Business in half the usual time. Designed for convenience, special short-term courses have been combined to form a pathway for students who need the added flexibility that condensed courses and fast certification provides. Participants enroll in CCCC and attend specially targeted accelerated terms for college credits. ACT collaborates with the local Career Opportunities Center to assist adults who are unemployed or underemployed looking for re-training, or updating their professional skills. Six certificate programs include college level credits which may also be applied towards a future degree. The current ACT program offers the following areas of study: Bookkeeping Clerk, Computerized Accounting, General Office Administration Assistant, Medical Receptionist, Medical Coding and Billing, and Medical Assisting.
