Medical Assistant
Most medical assistants complete two-year degree programs or receive on-the-job training. Certification and further education can not only increase hiring potential, but can also lead to more responsibilities on the job. Because medical assistants perform a variety of tasks, they have the opportunity to specialize in things like medical transcription or coding/billing. They may also pursue more patient-centered jobs by completing a Physician Assistant program.
A staple of the healthcare industry, medical assistants are in demand all over the US. Employment for medical assistants is estimated to grow much faster than average, and job opportunities should be abundant for medical assistants with formal training or certification.
