How MedCerts Apprenticeships Work

Published on

Building a talent pipeline is easier with on-the-job training and a trusted educational partner. MedCerts Partner Solutions is one of the first online apprenticeship providers approved by the U.S. Department of Labor, and we know what it takes to succeed.

At MedCerts, we work closely with workforce partners and healthcare and IT organizations to onboard promising, committed entry-level workers. If you’ve ever wondered how apprenticeships work and how they can benefit your organization, we’re here to guide you.

Hands-On Involvement

MedCerts’ apprenticeships are a collaboration between our team and the hiring organization. Employers define job responsibilities and the skills and competencies candidates need to succeed. These skills become the foundation of apprentices’ role-specific training plans.

Our diverse certification training program portfolio allows companies to tailor their apprenticeship programs to their business needs. With a variety of industry-standard and DOL-approved apprenticeship programs, MedCerts enables you to train individuals in the right skill set efficiently and effectively.

Relevant Instruction

At MedCerts, we design our programs using the best methods in modern healthcare staff training. We deliver online education aligned with industry standards and geared to the specific requirements for each organization and role.  

Through technology-enhanced learning models, we help candidates develop the skills they need to thrive. Course materials incorporate simulations, gamified learning and interactive quizzes to help students internalize the material. When paired with in-person learning on the job site, our coursework prepares students for real-world success.

Structured On-the-Job Training

MedCerts apprenticeships enable learners to apply their newly acquired knowledge immediately rather than spending years in the classroom. Apprentices develop technical competencies while cultivating professionalism, preparing them for success throughout their careers.

Also, to help them thrive from day one, we help you partner your apprentices with experienced mentors who have been on the job site for at least a year. We also track their progress and monitor their performance to support growth.

Wage Incentives

The benefit of apprenticeship programs is that individuals are paid during their apprenticeship training, which is typically funded by the employer. 

However,  federal grants through the Department of Labor and other funding options may be available to help you compensate apprentices. We can help you review your options.

Nationally Recognized Credentials

Graduates of our registered apprenticeship programs are prepared to earn nationally recognized credentials from respected organizations. These certifications promote upward mobility and emphasize the importance of professional development.

Credentialing benefits the apprentice and the hiring organization. The apprentice receives acknowledgment of their skills and a certification that can help them throughout their career.

You can hire with confidence, knowing that your entry-level employees possess skills in demand throughout the healthcare and IT industries.
