Student Perspective on Health Career Courses at WMCC

Tara who lives in Newbury, VT is in the Surgical Technology Program at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center. WMCC gave me the opportunity to get started on the first step towards a great career in the medical field. I began courses in 2008 and now I am finishing the Surgical Technician's program at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center. As a single mother of a young child I appreciate the opportunity WMCC gave me.

Anna-Lisa of Monroe, NH is a student in the WMCC RN program. The advisors at WMCC made it very easy to get started. I loved all of my instructors. They were highly competent professionals who were accommodating, flexible and informative. I really appreciated the evening schedule of classes.

Pam from Whitefield, NH is a student at the Vermont Technical College Nursing Program. When I returned to school for the 3rd time I went to WMCC for the prerequisite and general education courses needed for a RN program. I cannot say enough good things about WMCC and the first-rate staff and instructors there. Adult students are special, with their busy work schedules, families, heavy course loads, and tendency to be overachievers. Teachers understood student needs but ensured coursework that prepared me well for a rigorous nursing program. I have also enjoyed the camaraderie of staff and fellow students. I would recommend WMCC for any adult student looking for a practical, convenient, challenging, supportive and relevant community to begin their health care career education.

Adam from Piermont, NH is a Pre-Med student at UNH. WMCC allows ordinary individuals to take a step out of their daily life to introduce the opportunity for self-improvement. This improvement may be motivated purely in hope of learning a single topic, it may be preparatory for a nursing career, or it may even cause you to jump into an undergraduate program with your sights on medical school. In each instance, inspiration and motivation is a commonality shared by these students, a commonality not understood by many that do not take this route. Education and networking in proper balance can place you in extraordinary environments. WMCC gives you a chance not to change, but to escalate, who you are and what you will become.
