Phlebotomy Certificate
Enrollment begins in June 2024
Phlebotomy is a rewarding entry-level career for one who desires to work directly
with patients. Quality collection of blood samples by phlebotomists is important for
the patient's healthcare team to produce accurate laboratory results and determine
proper medical treatments. This program will provide the education and skills needed
to be a successful phlebotomist. The training program with Middlesex Community includes
120 hours of theory and skills lab training. Additionally, students will be placed
into a 100–120-hour clinical externship to provide real-time learning in an active
healthcare setting. Once the student has completed the program at MCC, they may choose
to sit for a national phlebotomy certification on their own (separate fee from this
program). $2,699
Scrubs and textbook cost are separate fees
Books = $100; Scrubs = $45
