Start Here, Grow Fast: Become a Certified Medical Assistant

If you’ve been thinking about working in healthcare—but don’t want to wait years to get started—becoming a Medical Assistant (MA) might be the smartest move you can make right now. At Cambridge College of Healthcare & Technology, our Medical Assistant program helps you go from classroom to career in a matter of months, not years.

Quick Entry, Real Impact

Medical Assistants are essential members of today’s healthcare teams. They support doctors and nurses, keep clinics running smoothly, and help patients every day. And here’s the best part: you can start fast.

Cambridge’s MA program is designed for rapid entry into the workforce, with the skills employers look for—from hands-on patient care to administrative expertise. Whether it’s checking vital signs, managing medical records, or assisting with procedures, you’ll be trained to handle it all.

Your Career, Your Choice

With your MA certification, the opportunities are wide open. Graduates from our program find jobs in:

  • Hospitals
  • Nursing homes
  • Assisted living facilities
  • Clinics
  • Doctor’s offices
  • And more

The flexibility of this credential means you can find a healthcare setting that matches your passion, whether that’s caring for seniors, supporting surgical teams, or helping patients in a busy family clinic.

A Steppingstone to Nursing

Thinking bigger? Many of our students use the Medical Assistant program as a launchpad toward nursing. After gaining experience and confidence in the field, you can apply your skills as you work toward an Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) or even a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN).

In fact, starting as a Medical Assistant gives you a competitive edge: you’ll enter nursing school with practical, hands-on experience—and a clear understanding of what it takes to succeed in a clinical environment.
