Play a Significant Role in Healthcare Diagnostics
As a Medical Laboratory Technician (MLT) you will work in an expanding medical field under the supervision of a medical technologist or a physician. The job requires you to be dependable, give attention to detail and to be honest and ethical. You will work with people mostly in hospitals but also in clinics and doctors’ offices, conducting laboratory tests for the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disease.
The MLT program at South Central College is accredited by the National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory Sciences (NAACLS). The current accreditation award is Probationary Accreditation, with a progress report due in October 2024. There is no expected impact on students.
