Healthcare training schools in Tennessee

The funding comes from a Tennessee Department of Labor Rural Health Workforce Initiative and will pay for the tuition of the first six students to register for the college’s allied health programs, with the exception of the Registered Dental Assistant program.

The college is the state’s first two-year college to establish a women’s flag football team and is among the first 10 two-year colleges in the country to do so.

The partnership will give current VUMC employees the opportunity to participate in a 12-week training program to earn certification as Healthcare Sterile Processing Association (HSPA) Certified Registered Central Service Technicians.
