Start your career as a Medical Office Administrator!
Medical Office Administrators play a critical role in our provincial healthcare system. This program will prepare you for the administrative and clinical duties of an office administrator in a medical or health care office.
Is medical office administration right for you?
The Medical Office Administration Certificate program is designed to provide the foundational knowledge, skills and abilities required to begin supporting the administrative needs of a modern medical or healthcare office.
Small class size
With smaller class sizes, you'll get to know your peers and instructors for more in-depth learning, support and camaraderie.
Work experience
Put your skills to work and gain valuable industry experience. Students must complete a capstone course which includes 70 hours of field practice in a local clinic.
After graduation
As a graduate, you are prepared to engage in basic triage of patients, charting, billing, and scheduling while working independently in a variety of health care settings.
You will also have a foundation to further study with Camosun's Business Administration diploma or Bachelor of Business Administration. Talk to an Academic Advisor to learn more about your options. You may be able to use courses taken in this program in other credentials in the School of Business or the college.
The program consists of 10 courses delivered primarily through face-to-face instruction. Evening and daytime classes are held predominantly at the Interurban campus.
In order to complete this program in eight months, you must start in the Fall term and study full-time. If you are planning to study part-time or begin in either the Winter or Summer term, please meet with an Academic Advisor or Program Leader prior to beginning the program to assist with course planning.
