Universal Healthcare Careers College was founded in 2008 as a school that specializes in providing training in health care education and training. Through a well balanced curriculum, students receive their training through lectures and hands-on training. All of the programs are designed with your needs in mind.
So what does your needs in mind mean?
Your need in mind means that we have taken into account the thousands of students that the founders of the College, Jackie and Aram Tomasian, have seen over the decades and fully understand the needs of their pupils. The needs include the personal needs of their students as well as the needs after the student graduates.
The programs are designed to give you ample hands-on experience in the lab so that when time comes for the real world, your transition will be as seamless as we can possibly make it. To make your transition to the real world seamless, you will have labs twice a week. Some labs we do regularly so that you can learn the skills and hone them while still a student. We call these labs the bread and butter labs.
Employers look for these skills when they hire, and we will make sure you will be ready when you graduate.
As for the lectures, we do away from the sciences that are not applicable to the work that you will do. This does not mean we will not cover everything, on the contrary, we will cover everything but just in a way that is necessary and applicable to the work you will be doing.
Mission
Our mission is to prepare students to gain employment in entry level jobs in the healthcare field. Equally important is to prepare students to learn the things necessary to serve themselves, their families, profession and community. We will not be an organization driven by ideas; instead, we will rely on insight to lead us to great ideas. We will not commit to anything until we have answered all the questions. By doing this, we will help our students build their lives.
Philosophy
The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically….Intelligence plus character – That is the goal of true education.
Dr. Martin Luther King
As Dr. King said, true education focuses not only on knowledge but on character development: especially developing the traits that lend the graduate to becoming a successful practitioner in the healthcare industry. Thus, through well thought out workshops the student receives the type of training that allows personal growth while learning skills and knowledge necessary making the transition from training to work seamless.
