According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, “employment of phlebotomists is projected to grow 22 percent from 2020 to 2030, much faster than the average for all occupations.”

Hospitals, diagnostic laboratories, blood donor centers, and other locations will need phlebotomists to perform blood work.

Northampton Community College’s comprehensive Phlebotomy Technician Program prepares students with the essential knowledge and hands-on experience to sit for the national certification exam.

For those interested in learning about a career in phlebotomy as well as the program and program requirements, NCC will be offering a free virtual Phlebotomy Technician Information Session on Aug. 23, 6 p.m.
