Professionals Trained by Professionals
Postsecondary vocational education teachers, also known as
postsecondary career and technical education instructors,
provide instruction for occupations that require specialized
training, but not usually a 4-year degree. Most vocational
training institutions prefer their medical assisting program
instructors to hold medical assistant certification and several
years of hands-on experience in all areas of the
profession.
Classes often are taught in an industrial or laboratory
setting where students are provided the theoretic knowledge
and hands-on experience they will be expected to perform
on the job. For example, medical
assisting instructors show students various wound
cleaning and bandaging techniques and essential safety
practices, watch them use materials and equipment, and have
them repeat procedures until they meet the specific standards
required by the trade.
Medical Assistant Instructors
Increasingly, career and technical education teachers are
integrating academic and vocational curriculums into their
classes, so that students obtain a variety of skills that
can be applied on the job. In addition, voc-ed instructors also
play a key role in students’ transition from school to work by
helping to set up internship programs for students
and then act as a direct
communicator between students and prospective
employers.
A good medical assistant instructor can relate and
communicate well with the students, enjoys working
with them, and be able to motivate them. Additionally, should
have an inquiring and analytical mind, a strong desire to
pursue and disseminate knowledge, and must be self-motivated
and able to work independently in an environment in which
they receive little direct supervision. Not only that! A
medical assistant instructor must be able and willing to take a
large porting of the work load home and continue from there,
such as preparing hand-outs for lessons, grading papers and
quizzes, and reading through different research materials and
text books to prepare their lectures and exam papers.
Job opportunities are expected to be very good, but most new
openings will be for part-time or non-tenure-track positions.
Prospects will be better and earnings higher in rapidly growing
areas, such as larger cities and urgan areas, that offer many
nonacademic career options within their territory.
