Once successfully completed, MOA Graduates can make $31 per hour and can enter into the following occupations.
• Medical Office Assistant: Manage administrative tasks in medical settings.
• Medical Receptionist: Greet and assist patients in clinics.
• Medical Records Clerk: Maintain patient health records.
• Billing Specialist: Handle medical billing and insurance claims.
• Clinical Assistant: Support healthcare providers with patient care.
Here’s how the MOA program works
The program begins September 2026 and will run on a day about schedule for the school year. The day about schedule allows MOA students to take four courses at their home school every other day, with MOA courses on the alternate days. Teaching in the program is synchronous virtual learning; meaning the course work occurs in real time - online. But, if enough students apply to form a cohort, WCC will send an instructor to SD 42 for in person instruction!
