JCC Releases Spring 2024 Listing of Allied Health Training

Jefferson Community College (JCC) has released its spring 2024 listing of precertification allied health training programs geared towards adults seeking to advance their careers or embark on a new professional journey in the ever-growing sector of allied health.  Training begins in February and March respectively with the majority of classes conveniently scheduled to meet twice a week during the evenings from 6:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. This flexible timing allows participants to balance their current commitments while investing in their professional development. Training is held on JCC's campus, at the Lewis County JCC Education Center and Fort Drum. 

Military spouses can benefit from MyCAA funding, but they need to submit their Education and Training Plans (ETPs) four weeks prior to the training start date to be eligible. Scholarships totaling $2,000, made possible by a rural healthcare grant, are available for veterans and veteran spouses who enroll in pharmacy technician and phlebotomy technician programs in spring 2024. Workforce training is open to everyone and Jefferson honors employer tuition reimbursement.

In addition to allied health training, JCC partners with Ed2Go to offer a myriad of online workshops to assist any professional at any level in their career from business to construction and health to technology and so much more.
