The NJ Premier Institute for Medical and Dental Training in Hazlet says there couldn’t be a better time to enroll and begin a rewarding career as a medical assistant. Currently the demand for medical assistants is exceeding the supply of qualified and trained individuals.

The NJ Premier Institute for Medical and Dental Training offers a 13-week hands on course which prepares potential medical assistants with the information necessary to be eligible to sit for the national board certification.

Working right along side doctors and other medical professionals, medical assistants perform essential duties before, during, and after a patient’s appointment, which is why the position is so critical to the daily operations of a medical establishment. Medical assistants help keep the doctor on schedule by performing a wide variety of tasks in the examination rooms with patients and at the front desk as well.

A career in medical assisting is also financially rewarding. The national average earning for medical assistants is approximately $37,000.  Plus, due to the demand for qualified individuals, flexible part-time and full-time positions are available.

According to Lisa Wassef, co-director at the institute, “This is a great field for anyone who finds themselves having to re-enter the work force.  Training is only 13 weeks and financial reward is almost immediate due to the amount of positions open.  For mothers returning to work to help with finances, the field offers the flexibility of part-time hours.”
