What Students Say
“我在教学数年后选择了卫生信息管理领域。CLC项目的组织和结构给我留下了深刻的印象。在北岸大学健康系统的临床经验期间，我有机会在当地一家使用非常集成的电子健康记录(EHR)系统的医院度过了一段时间，并看到了该领域的许多不同方面。与不同的健康信息管理人员一起工作，让我可以观察和尝试几种不同的角色，包括编码、发布信息、准备和扫描以及合并。”
—Karen Thomason, second year student
What Graduates Say
“我需要为自己和孩子们改变生活/职业。我知道我想要一些可以在电脑上简单完成的事情，而且地点灵活方便，时间安排适合我的家人。在卫生信息管理中有很大的增长空间和不同的角色。无论你是想成为一名医疗编码员还是从事其他工作，CLC的项目都是你实现目标的一个很好的垫脚石。我很开心，我的孩子们也很开心，我喜欢我做的事情。”
—Jenna Scala, 2011 graduate
“I was looking for a fresh start after 30-plus years in a marketing, publishing and printing career. CLC offers a great program that gives an in-depth look at the many opportunities in health information management. It’s not just a coding course. Each instructor's goal was to equip each student with the tools necessary to acquire our Registered Health Information Technician (RHIT) certification AND find work in the field of health information management. Their dedication to our success is much appreciated.”
—Linda Altman, 2013 graduate

“With the aid of the advisory committee, CLC has developed a program that underscores the grave responsibilities that are associated with protecting and preserving health information. The standards are set high—as they should be—for those entering the program, and graduates represent CLC in a manner that makes faculty proud.”
