Workforce plus has teamed up with Tallahassee Community College in an effort to train twenty people in our area who are looking for a job in the medical administrative field.

The three day-a-week, six month course begins on September 15th. Tuition and the textbook are free.

Students who pass the Electronic Health Information course and exam will have the requirements needed to apply for a position in the field.

"With the economy like it is, this is an opportunity because this field has so much growth and anticipated growth over the next four years, so these jobs are going to start opening up for people. So, if they can get on board, take the course, they will have a job," said Sonya Fowler.

For more details about signing up for the course or what tasks electronic health information specialists perform, call Workforce plus at 850-617-4602.

My daughter called Workforce the morning this story came out, and went by Workforce to sign up. No one has contacted her about the acceptance process. If it is starting next week, workforce needs to get on the ball.

Lisa I sort of agree with you but I imagine those who are unemployed and spend all their time at the Workforce Plus office knew about this before it even hit the news. And yes you would think they could help more than 20. Even the $5000 one time lifetime re-training/training has its gotchas that they workforce plus doesn't tell you in orientation - you have to jump thru the hoops first to look like a fool in the end.
