Thank you to everyone who joined our healthcare career information session with Cuyahoga Community College’s Health Industry Solutions team at the Esperanza Access Center!

From nursing assistant training and community health work to medical coding and patient access, the session introduced a range of options for taking that next step.

We’re grateful to the Tri-C team for sharing their expertise and answering questions, and to our attendees for bringing their interest and career aspirations to the conversation. We’re proud to help connect our community with education and workforce opportunities! 💛
