I’m interested in going further in my education. I’m currently a Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) and received my Certification in Phlebotomy in 2009, but my Phlebotomy Certification from my understanding from a employer is not a National Certification. I went to Med Tech College in Greenwood, IN and now they are closed for good. So I guess where I am getting at is I spent a lot of money to take the class and be Certified. Which I enjoyed doing it so much, but I am disappointed I’ve never been able to put it to use because the school said, I had all the experience I needed do to achieving over 100 sticks while in school and passing my exam. Come to find out I was basically scammed by them because I’m not a National Certified Phlebotomist “I suppose.” So before I go any further I kindly ask that I have documentation or proof of the fact that your program is 100% an ACCREDITED online program and will receive a ACCREDITED NATIONAL CERTIFICATION when finished. I don’t want to seem rude, but I don’t want to waste my time and money on pursuing something I’m very passionate about to be scammed again and very sadly disappointed. Im sorry because I don’t want or mean to sound rude or disrespectful, but I hope you can respectfully understand why I am asking for some reassurance from you please. Other than that, I want you to that your program does have my attention and I’m very interested, but just not so sure. I hope you understand and able to assist me further in all this so I know I can make the right decision. Thank you
