Certified Medical Assistant—CMA (AAMA) exam
Students in the Medical Assistant Associate degree program and the Medical Assistant Diploma program at Broadview University prepare for the CMA (AAMA) exam. Coursework reviews clinical skills and professional development issues, and provides an opportunity to renew DPR-PR certification.
The CMA (AAMA) review prepares students to sit for the CMA (AAMA) Certified Medical Assistant exam offered by the AAMA (American Association of Medical Assistants). When a student passes the exam, he or she will be entitled to use the CMA (AAMA) professional national credential.
Other certifications for medical assistants
