Absolutely. Learners receive coursework support and academic guidance from subject-matter experts and have access to both live (synchronous) and self-paced (asynchronous) learning materials. Our “high-touch” approach blends professional-led sessions with self-study tools to prepare learners for their healthcare roles.

Cross-training healthcare staff can help organizations ease staffing gaps, manage patient volume fluctuations, and support coordinated care — all while reducing the need for multiple specialists. For example, medical assistants trained in limited scope radiography can perform basic X-ray imaging procedures.* Expanding their role helps support care delivery while providing employers with one employee who can perform services under multiple roles.

Factors to consider when choosing a healthcare training solutions provider include:

Organizational goal alignment: Does the training support your strategic objectives, like improving patient outcomes, reducing errors, or boosting operational efficiency?

Return on investment (ROI): Can the program help reduce turnover, improve performance, and justify the cost? Metrics like certification pass rates, retention improvements, and patient satisfaction are often used to evaluate ROI.

Employer feedback: Does the training agency provide you with information as to your employees’ progress? Can it help you identify staff that may or may not be good fits for certain roles?

Program structure and flexibility: Is the training cohort-based or self-paced? Are there live sessions or only pre-recorded content? Can employees train with minimal work schedule disruptions?

Technology integration: Does the program include training on EHR systems, telehealth platforms, or other digital tools? Are immersive methods like VR/AR simulations or microlearning used to enhance engagement and retention?

Soft skills development: Are communication, teamwork, and empathy part of the curriculum? Employers increasingly value soft skills for improving patient interaction and team dynamics.

Regulatory compliance: Does the training meet state and federal regulations (e.g., HIPAA, OSHA)? Are the certifications it prepares employees to sit for recognized nationally or state-specific?

Completion and certification rates: What percentage of learners complete the program? How many pass certification exams on the first try?

Clinical training support: Does the provider help arrange hands-on externships or clinical placements? This is crucial for roles requiring practical experience.
