Dorsey Raises The Bar With Credentials - Students Take The Challenge & Produce Outstanding Results!

Starting in January of 2010, Dorsey Schools raised the bar – for students and for staff.  In an effort to “up our game,” the educational team chose to begin an affiliation with the American Medical Technologists (AMT): the certifiers of the Registered Medical Assistant (RMA) exam. 

In the medical assisting field, the RMA exam is one of the most prestigious credentials available, and we wanted our students to have it.  The challenge, of course, was that it is a much more difficult exam, so our students would need to work even harder to pass the test – and our teachers would have to do the same.
 
Well, we called, and they answered!

Last module, the first group of students to finish the medical assisting program under the new AMT guidelines sat for the RMA exam.  With bated breath, we have awaited their test results.

While we certainly would not share the details, it will suffice to say that:
THEY ALL PASSED!  100% of them!

And they didn’t just pass, they aced it!  The minimum score to pass the test, as with the NCCT, is a 70%.  The lowest score from this group was an 86%!  Outstanding!

Dorsey Students – You are well on your way to success!  (And, the AMT agrees!)  Look for review sessions and take advantage of these opportunities!

Dorsey Instructors – Keep doing what you’re doing!  Your compassion and professionalism is evident in the outcomes that our students are receiving!

A special congratulations to the following students:

Ø  Christol C.

Ø  Tiffany F.

Ø  Charlesetta H.

Ø  Nicole M.

Ø  Stephanie R.

Ø  Jessica S.

Ø  Robyn W.

While many of our graduates successfully challenge various exams, this particular test is an indicator of our school’s pursuit of quality educational outcomes.  You each have made us very proud of your accomplishments!

Also, a special thank you to Mr. Vollmer and our medical team for investing the countless hours they invested in preparing these students for their exams.  We are proud to have you all!
