The Medical Assistant Accelerated Pathway to Employment Training (MAAPET) project is a full-time program.
Monday - Friday, 8am - 5pm (8hr/day)
The first 10 weeks of training consist of in-person classroom lecture and lab (hands-on) instruction. Trainees should anticipate to study and complete at least 10 hrs. of homework per week outside of this time frame (unpaid).
