About the Course

This course will benefit anyone considering a career in allied health, as well as those already working the field. Allied Health Professionals must be committed to the key attributes of professionalism and strive to reflect this within the delivery of patient-centered, safe, and effective care. “Professionalism” is a broad term which reflects many different skills and abilities. For an individual to exhibit professionalism, they must be armed with specific skills and abilities that do not always show up within certification requirements, or even within career training curriculum. Soft skills are hard to measure and are typically less well-defined than hard skills. However, soft skills are what set many job candidates apart. Professionalism is not just what one knows. It is how one does their job, how one behaves, and how one comes across as they interact with others. The purpose of this course is to support students with soft skills training that will provide the tools needed to demonstrate a higher level of professionalism on the job. Key components of the course focus on patient interaction, proper office behavior, medical ethics, diversity and cultural bias, emotional strength, professional appearance, and communication. The course maintains a focus on the key attributes that are true markers of professionalism. This course was created with input from healthcare professionals working in the field, healthcare employers that hire our graduates, professional educators, and even former MedCerts students. The end-result is a collection of modules that touch on the soft skills that are truly important in the real world of allied healthcare. In this course, students are engaged through scenario-based learning that allows for real interaction with virtual coworkers and patients. Additionally, game-based activities keep students engaged and entertained throughout their learning journey....

Horrible advice to say pay should not be discussed in the office when discussion of pay and salary with coworkers is a federally protected right.

As someone who is completely new to all of this and quite nervous being 30 years old and haven't taken a class or anything since I was about 16 years old, I was pleasantly surprised to have such an easy to follow along with course and the way the instructor conveyed all the lessons kept me highly motivated to keep showing up and taking extensive notes helped me immensely. It also made me really proud of myself for finally taking that leap and finally learning a skill that will benefit me in the long run. I was a little unsure at first but I am now looking ahead and planning to go for my CPC (Certified Professional Coder) exam in the future as soon as possible. So thank you so much for having this course up because I was at a loss as to what to do with my life and this course really helped me find a potential career that I can be happy in and not to mention, an actual livable wage and I don't have a livable wage at the moment and so it is more motivation for me. So, in short, I'd love to just say thank you for helping me gain more marketable skills and thing to put on my resume and helping so many others like me to do the same.

This is the course, Easy and with all the points you need to know, specially if you already work on a Health company, in my case I'm a Dental Assistant and definitely i will use each tip, advice, etc... of this course.

This is an outstanding course on professionalism in the workplace. Proper communication is definitely a life skill that can be useful beyond the workplace. This was a very positive and uplifting course for those entering the workforce or for those needing to get unstuck.

This course clearly describes the expected conduct of an Allied Health Professional and presents the material in a way that is intuitive to follow. The information is outlined logically and the modules provide the exact amount of detail needed to learn each topic.

The way of telling and explaining is a very, very good way, and the 3d version of telling us the manners with it is too let us know how the right words to say, but I feel if we asked more in the 3d video, it would be very much more useful, but it's overall good.

Amazing way to set the foundation and basics to understanding the workplace. Things that you would think are common sense are not once put in the real world scenarios. Love the mental health and common courtesies that this course taught!
