Varsity Tutors offers a comprehensive online San Antonio ASCP certification class that can help you build the academic foundation of knowledge and test-taking skills you'll need on exam day. The ASCP, or American Society for Clinical Pathology, is an organization that offers more than 20 certifications for medical laboratory technicians interested in enhancing their resumes or simply getting more out of their daily duties. Each certification has multiple "Routes" of prerequisites, such as earning a degree from a school such as University of Texas - San Antonio or the University of the Incarnate Word - Ila Faye Miller School of Nursing that you must meet before sitting for the appropriate exam. Keep reading to learn more about how we can help you prepare for exam day.
We offer San Antonio ASCP certification training for any of the certifications you might be interested in pursuing, giving you the benefit of test prep that revolves around the assessment you're planning to take. For example, let's say that you're studying for the Medical Laboratory Technician (MLT) exam. Your class instructor can cover topics such as the physiology of bodily fluids, coagulation factors, and the genetics of blood groups to help you feel prepared for anything the test might throw at you. We also ensure that every instructor has extensive knowledge of ASCP concepts, so any questions you ask can be met with a prompt, accurate answer.
Your instructor can also incorporate practice exams into your San Antonio ASCP certification training to give you a sense of how the exam usually words questions. Most ASCP assessments utilize a standard format of 100 questions in two-and-a-half hours, but several follow a unique format. For instance, the Phlebotomy Technician (PBT) test has 80 questions administered over two hours. ASCP exams also utilize a Computer Adaptive Testing (CAT) format that adjusts the difficulty of your exam according to whether you got the previous question right or wrong. This can be nerve-wracking, so your instructor might teach you mindfulness techniques to help you concentrate on the item in front of you instead of the previous one.
Every online course we provide consists of a group of students led by with a knowledgeable instructor using our exclusive Live Learning Platform. Our proprietary platform is essentially an online classroom that's equipped with powerful features like video chat and a virtual whiteboard that makes it possible to see and hear everyone in the virtual room as though you were meeting in person. As a result, you can receive face-to-face instruction anywhere with a solid internet connection.
Some students may be hesitant to share their instructor with other students, but this can actually be a good thing. If you're having a hard time with the Chemistry items on the Medical Laboratory Science (MLS) test, one of your classmates might be able to share their insights with you to make it feel more approachable. Likewise, you can try teaching concepts on the Histotechnician (HT) exam to your classmates to reinforce your own knowledge base. Your peers are attending classes for the same reasons you are, so why not work together to reach for your full academic potential?
Varsity Tutors also makes the process as easy as possible. We launch new courses monthly, so you never need to wait too long to get started. There are also two- and four-week options to help formal instruction fit into nearly any schedule. Since everything takes place online, there's no need to sit in traffic trying to make it to a session.
If you're interested in enrolling in a San Antonio ASCP certification course, Varsity Tutors has the solution you have been searching for. Reach out to an Educational Consultant online or by phone today for more information on how we might be able to assist you!
