• Program Updates:

o Medical Assistant
The committee focused on the Medical Assistant program updates, as this program is
slated to begin fall 2025. Many questions were asked during the discussion on when
courses would be offered each semester, the overall program structure, admissions
requirements and processes, and other questions that are currently unanswered regarding
the program. The committee discussed how an application process could help catch ineligible
students on the front end before taking courses, and then students would be cleared/allowed
to register once verification of background, immunizations, etc. and any other admissions
criteria were reviewed. A subcommittee (Krist, Vicki, Darcy) will meet to research
questions and gather information, and bring back program recommendations to the next
meeting.
