@elishakidd9753 I am going to start preppy at the end of February!! I'm excited. I started at a university years ago and I'm a busy father so it seemed like I could just never finish. Preppy is GENIUS I am so happy with this program!!!!
Where I live we don’t have the CST program. Sadly, I am currently taking a CNA program instead and hopefully, I can move out and find a college with the program.
Hey Kevin, These externships are arranged local to you. They're a minimum of 40 hours but can be much longer. Let us know if you have any other questions :)
how was it? and did u get a job? and how much they start paying entry level plz replyme back as ur answer is very important to me and will be a big help for me
I'm an office based surgical medical assistant for 28 years. I would like to add certified surgical tech to my resume. How would this course work for me?
@@Certified-Success awesome!!! I did talk to one of the representatives on the website and she shared with me that the student can ask to be placed at certain hospitals for their externship and that you guys would try your hardest to get us in with our first choice. Massachusetts General Hospital would absolutely be my first choice! Their learning opportunities are endless. Basically any hospital in Boston would be amazing!!! So many of them are Harvard Medical learning hospitals!!! I'm so excited for this opportunity that preppy is offering! Thank you for this!
@@chantaljeancharles7153 No schedules! That's a really big deal for busy adults, since we can't stop everything we're doing in our lives to attend school. You make your own hours, and you cant start instantly!
Great video! I have been trying to change job that can provide more time with my family. Surg Scrub Tech jobs has scheduled that l need. I already have BSN-RN,CMSN. How long will it take me to become Surg Scrub Tech?
The NCCT and the AAH do not share that data with us, but our students who report back have been reporting great results! :) You can check the testimonials on our review page: deals.preppy.org/preppy-student-reviews
Hey, After Preppy, you'd be ready to the take the TS-C exam through NCCT & the NCST Exam through AAH. Both of these are nationally-recognized certifications for surgical techs.
Associates programs are usually much longer (up to 2 years) while certification programs are shorter. The key is to get the accredited University training, get your industry certification, and get some experience under your belt. That's why we feel this system is so much better than a typical associate's degree route, since you typically don't *need an associate's degree, it's faster, cheaper, and with far more perks :)
I love thissss, this has motivated me some more to go for this, I want to ask, I am currently working in the UK and I want to get this done before I come to the US my question is how will i get my certificate from the university since I am not in the US yet?
Hey there! Yes, no problem...we have many international students 😊 You would finish the course online and we could mail the certificate to you. Once you're here in the US we can schedule your Externship!
I have a severed flexor tendon at A2 in my left middle finger. The tip digit does not bend and is therefore mostly useless. Is this something that would hinder my ability to function in this role?
Hey there! Many people in healthcare have issues like this...and, keep in mind it's unlawful for companies to discriminate their hiring based on any disability.
Hey, After you complete the program, you can apply for the TS-C exam through the NCCT. NCCT is an independent organization and you can take the exam, both online & offline, according to your preference.
