Success Stories from our Students
GREAT SCHOOL!
Was able to learn at my own pace. They have coaches that you can make appointments to guide you along the way and help with any questions you may have on the material. I just finished my course wit HTA for Surgical Tech and im on the way to starting my clinicals !! so excited !! highly recommend if you are a self pace learner
SO FAR IM PLEASED
Despite the recent review aafia was AMAZING she answered all my questions as well as made sure I had a clear understanding how this SELF PACED program works I’m excited for my new journey with HTA AS THE NEWEST SURGICAL TECH ! Thank you again Aafia And Nathan
Jumping into HTA's Surgical Technology
Jumping into HTA's Surgical Technology course, i was a bit anxious about the tech side of things. But the platform was user-friendly, and any tech hiccups were quickly smoothed out by their responsive support.
Great Orientation
Adarsh Kumar was fantastic at orienting me to the program. He has an easy-going, smooth style. He was prompt and concise, making for a great introduction to the Surgical Boot Camp Program.
The Surgical Technologist Bootcamp
The Surgical Technologist Bootcamp online was really useful. The coursework was clear and to follow, and the instructors were always there to answer any questions. Health Tech Academy made sure I was well-prepared for my future job.-
2023 was a rough year for me. I lost a lot but I also gained a lot. I desperately needed to start working, but I wanted to spend my time on starting a career and not working a typical 9-5 that I won’t grow in or be happy in. I decided to do research and stumbled upon Health Tech Academy. I gave them a call and I was very happy to know that it was at my own pace and I could get finished as quickly as I was capable. The only other thing I needed to figure out was the financial aspect of it, I was nervous about that. Luckily, there was an affordable payment plan! Because I have health care knowledge already, I was happy to see that I got through the program very quickly and was satisfied with the learning experience.

The DA program offered by Health Tech Academy is a cost-friendly course that really prepares you for the responsibilities of being a dental assistant. I felt that it worked perfectly for my busy schedule and was nice to my pockets! The team was very on point with their assistance and making sure that I got to experience the entirety of what the course had to offer. Overall, great communication and great course material!
