Full course description
Your next career move starts with understanding how growth really happens in healthcare.
Doing your job well is important, but career advancement often requires more than strong technical performance. Understanding how healthcare organizations evaluate readiness, recognize contributions, and identify employees for new opportunities can help you make more intentional decisions about what comes next.
Designed for working phlebotomists ready to think beyond their current role, this self-paced course helps you build a practical strategy for long-term career growth. You’ll explore realistic advancement pathways, assess your readiness for your next move, and learn how to position your experience and contributions for lead, supervisory, specialized, or future healthcare opportunities.
You’ll learn how to set realistic 1-, 3-, and 5-year career goals, identify skill and experience gaps, turn everyday contributions into measurable career impact, navigate internal advancement conversations, and build career capital through targeted education, professional relationships, sponsorship, and strategic visibility.
Through real-world healthcare scenarios, reflection, self-assessments, and practical career-planning activities, you’ll apply what you learn to your own professional goals. Along the way, you’ll build your Career Growth Strategies in Action portfolio—a personalized collection of tools you can continue using for development conversations, performance reviews, advancement opportunities, and future career decisions.
This self-paced course is designed to help experienced phlebotomists move beyond simply wondering “What’s next?” and begin building a clear, realistic, and sustainable strategy for career growth.
