We all wish we could swap outfits like Michelle!

From hand pokes to bed bathing, pharmaceutical calculations to testing surgical equipment, May was a busy month for our learners.

We are excited to welcome June as we see Unit Clerk/ MOA, Community Support Worker and Medical Lab Assistant students start their practicum placements!

"I've seen assistants move into higher roles — without taking additional education. Assistant managers. Narcotic handling specialists in hospitals. Pac-Med specialists in long-term care. Even assistant instructors. Once you have the foundation and the experience, the doors keep opening."
That's the thing about healthcare education done right — the first role is just the beginning.

She graduated from Abes College in 2007. eighteen years later, she’s still here - but now she’s leading!

Meet Lisa!

She completed our Medical Laboratory Assistant programs, built a career across Alberta and beyond, and then came back to Abes - first as an instructor and now as our Student Service Coordinator.

She didn’t just get a credential, she got a launchpad!

Lisa’s journey is living proof that hands-on education can take you further than you ever expected!

What other colleges won’t tell you:

- you don’t always need a high school diploma to complete a diploma program
- longer periods of study do not guarantee quality
- practicum placements are the key to employment
- “your practicum is guaranteed”

Applying is free, take the first step by clicking our link in bio.
