Certified Medical Assistant Program

Springboard’s Certified Medical Assistant Program is a 4-month, beginner‑friendly course that trains students for the Certified Clinical Medical Assistant (CCMA) exam. Designed for learners with no healthcare experience, the flexible 100 % online curriculum blends self‑paced lessons with weekly live instruction and culminates in a clinical externship. Over four months, students build foundational knowledge, master body systems, learn clinical patient care (vital signs, phlebotomy, EKG), and develop administrative skills such as billing, coding, and patient communication. The program is shorter and more affordable than traditional options and offers career coaching and job placement support to help graduates secure full‑time roles.
