Health Professions Institute

ACCC’s new Health Professions Institute occupies 6,000 square feet and includes a science lab, lecture classrooms and a computer center. Students receive comprehensive allied and auxiliary health training for a number of health care careers, such as:

  • Surgical Technician
  • Certified Nurse Aide
  • Medical Terminology
  • Phlebotomy
  • Clinical Medical Assistant
  • Medical Administrative Office Specialist

The institute was funded by a $1.2 million capital grant from the U.S. Department of Commerce and $1.8 million in state and Atlantic County funds. The project was also backed by Workforce Investment Board Healthcare Partnerships and executives in the healthcare industry.  ACCC President Dr. Peter Mora called the institute a "demonstrative commitment to the healthcare industry."

The creation of the Health Professions Institute came in response to the growing demand
for skilled healthcare workers in the region.

By 2010, there will be 98,700 new healthcare jobs created in New Jersey, according to the N.J. Department of Labor. Nearly 10 percent of all workers in Atlantic and Cape May counties will be employed in the healthcare sector.

The Health Professions Institute improves opportunities for low income individuals to acquire skills for these demand occupations with high wage potential, benefits and career mobility.

The programs prepare students for the necessary certification exams and/or entry-level positions in their selected field. For more information, call (609) 343-4829.
