- Featuring valuable resources for both job seekers and employers, the MedCerts Career Center serves as a one-stop recruiting ground for healthcare and IT professionals
Amid nationwide healthcare worker shortages that have been exacerbated by the pandemic, MedCerts, a leader in online healthcare and IT certification training, aims to connect students to new careers and fill employer vacancies faster with the launch of their new online Career Center. By integrating career planning and job searching into the learning process, MedCerts—a Stride, Inc. company—intends to not only teach students the skills to do the job, but also the skills needed to get and keep the job.
“We’re proud to support our students every step of the way to their new careers, and career planning is and will always remain a vital lifelong skill,” said Jason Aubrey, CEO of MedCerts. “With both candidates and employers struggling to fill positions during the pandemic, we hope our Career Center will help minimize delays in the job search and employment process, and in ultimately closing the skills gap.”
