Featuring valuable resources for both job seekers and employers,
the MedCerts Career Center serves as a one-stop recruiting ground
for healthcare and IT professionals
Amid nationwide healthcare worker shortages that have been
exacerbated by the pandemic, MedCerts, a leader in online
healthcare and IT certification training, aims to connect students
to new careers and fill employer vacancies faster with the launch
of their new online Career Center. By integrating career planning
and job searching into the learning process, MedCerts—a Stride,
Inc. (NYSE: LRN) company—intends to not only teach students the
skills to do the job, but also the skills needed to get and keep
the job.
“We’re proud to support our students every step of the way to
their new careers, and career planning is and will always remain a
vital lifelong skill,” said Jason Aubrey, CEO of MedCerts. “With
both candidates and employers struggling to fill positions during
the pandemic, we hope our Career Center will help minimize delays
in the job search and employment process, and in ultimately closing
the skills gap.”
Using the MedCerts Career Center, any job seeker can access
career prep content and browse and apply for a variety of
opportunities in healthcare and IT, including job listings,
internships, externships, apprenticeships, and job shadowing
experiences. Users can create a profile and receive personalized
email alerts about jobs and resources such as career planning and
job search webinars.
For enrolled MedCerts students and alumni, the new platform
enhances their journey from certification to career by giving them
access to career planning tools—and exclusive additional
resources—from day one of enrollment. Students don’t have to wait
until program completion to jumpstart their job search with the
Career Center’s resume builder, interview preparation platform, job
boards, nationwide job trend data, weekly webinars, and expert
advice from MedCerts Career Coaches who can also connect them
directly with potential employers.
The MedCerts Career Center also serves as a valuable resource
hub for employers, providing first real-time access to more than
35,000 MedCerts students and alumni for their open positions. As
Employer Partners, organizations can create customized profiles,
post jobs, receive notifications about candidates who match key
criteria, and receive a discount on MedCerts trainings for their
staff.
MedCerts students engage in online, hands-on career training
courses in healthcare and IT fields to prepare for one of over
twenty national certifications. More than 1,000 organizations have
hired MedCerts students or are offering training and employment
opportunities for students and employees, including CVS Pharmacy,
DaVita Dialysis, Walmart, and the American Red Cross.
