Are you ready to prepare for the future?
Hamdard Health Alliance is incredibly proud to be partnering with the National Institute for Medical Assistant Advancement (NIMAA), a recognized medical assistant training program, to provide training opportunities to meet the needs of our community members.
Come for the training, stay for the long-term.
Through this program, Hamdard Health Alliance will host three (3) students to become MAs. Student spots are open to anyone who is interested in becoming a medical assistant and has an interest in and understanding of the health challenges facing our communities. It is our hope that once the students complete their training, they will join the Hamdard Health family and become part of our award-winning team.
Traditional MA training can be expensive, which is why Hamdard will help cover tuition and fees if you secure employment with us after completing this program. *Pell Grant Eligible
