About the CPS Allied Health Program
CPS Allied Health Program offers industry-recognized certifications across a range of in-demand healthcare fields, including Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), Pharmacy Technician, Medical Billing and Coding, Medical Interpreter, EKG, and Phlebotomy.
The CPS EKG Technician Certification Program (Hybrid) prepares students to perform electrocardiograms, monitor heart rhythms, and support physicians in diagnosing cardiovascular conditions. They learn how to operate EKG equipment, identify common heart abnormalities, ensure patient safety, and follow clinical protocols. The Phlebotomy Certification Program (Hybrid) provides the hands-on skills needed to safely draw blood, process specimens, and support laboratory testing in clinical settings. Students learn venipuncture techniques, proper handling and labeling procedures, infection control, patient communication, and safety practices required in hospitals, labs, and outpatient centers. Both courses prepare them to sit for the national certification exam and begin a vital role in today’s healthcare system, including hospitals, cardiology offices, diagnostic labs, and outpatient care centers.
CPS is currently seeking Continuing Education Teachers (CETs) in our expanding Allied Health programs to support program delivery and ensure operational excellence.

Successful candidates will demonstrate expertise in current EKG and Phlebotomy instructional practices and the ability to design and deliver curriculum aligned with National Healthcareer Association (NHA) training and competency standards. This includes preparing students to provide safe, high-quality care in long-term care settings under the supervision of licensed healthcare professionals.
CPS programs integrate rigorous didactic online instruction with hands-on clinical training, creating a dynamic and interactive learning experience. CETs must have a combination of three important factors: national certification, clinical competency, and instructional ability. They must be able to promote active learning, critical thinking, and student engagement at every stage. The ideal candidate is a proactive problem-solver, highly motivated, and committed to continuous self-reflection and professional growth.
