The Phlebotomy Program provides students with the basic knowledge and skills needed to safely draw blood, label and maintain specimens. This program consists of 80 hours (50 hours of classroom instruction and 30 hours of clinical/lab experience).

*While CDE CAREER INSTITUTE actively assists students in their job search; we cannot guarantee employment to any student. If local employment opportunities are not available, relocation may be necessary.
