Ashworth College Announces Three New Healthcare Courses
Atlanta, Georgia (PRWEB) March 14, 2017 -- Ashworth College (http://www.ashworthcollege.edu), a leading provider of accredited, online educational programs, recently launched three new online training programs in the healthcare field. The programs include online training programs for Advanced Medical Coding, Electronic Medical Records and Medical Office Receptionist.

“We’re excited to offer these new training programs in emerging fields,” said Rob Klapper, president of Ashworth College. “The flexibility of our online courses allows our students to learn at their own pace, and can help to better position them for these careers.”
