This summer, Penn Foster launched the Healthcare Careers Institute to provide training and upskilling for in-demand healthcare positions, including roles in healthcare administration, clinical healthcare, and pharmaceutical healthcare. Delivered online, the Healthcare Careers Institute offers both diploma and certificate programs as well as short-form pathway programs. The Penn Foster Healthcare Careers Institute currently serves more than 40,000 health professionals annually as they work towards credentials in clinical healthcare, pharmacy, and health administration.

Within the Healthcare Careers Institute, Penn Foster’s accredited career diploma and certificate programs train for roles including Medical Assistant, Pharmacy Technician, and Medical Billing & Coding and prepare learners for industry-recognized credentialing exams, where applicable. On the other hand, our career pathway programs can be completed within an average of 1-3 months and provide training for in-demand healthcare support functions such as Contact Tracer, Dietary Aide, and Pharmacy Assistant roles.
