Are you ready to start a career in healthcare — without spending years in school or thousands in tuition?
Becoming a Certified Medical Assistant (MA) might be the perfect path for you. And now, you can do it 100% online, at your own pace, and with full support from a nationally accredited program.
At Clinical Skills Institute (CSI), we’ve made it easier than ever to enter the healthcare field with confidence, experience, and a nationally recognized certification — all for just $810 total.
Why Become a Certified Medical Assistant?
Medical Assistants are in high demand across urgent cares, primary care offices, and specialty clinics. They perform vital administrative and clinical tasks that keep clinics running smoothly. The best part? You don’t need years of school to start. Most of our students complete the program and earn their certification in just 3 months.
What Makes Our Program Unique?
✅ NHA-Accredited: We are officially partnered with the National Healthcareer Association (NHA). You’ll graduate with a nationally recognized credential that opens doors across the country. 📞 You can call NHA to verify our partnership: (800) 499-9092
✅ Fully Online & Self-Paced: No classes, no schedules — study on your own time. Perfect for working adults, parents, and busy students.
✅ Fast Completion Timeline: Study just 3–4 hours a day and finish in 3 months. But you’ll have up to 12 months of access if you need more time.

Resume & job support
Optional 1-on-1 Zoom mentoring

Help you find urgent cares or clinics near your zip code
Provide letters of recommendation
Guide you on how to reach out and get accepted
Support you through interview and onboarding
Many students are hired directly after externship. This is a collaborative process, but we’ll walk with you every step of the way.
