A NCTC is a form of recognition awarded by a community college made up of a single or series of courses that do not offer college credit for completion. These are short-term programs that provide skills training in response to regional occupational needs.
Phlebotomy
The primary responsibility of a phlebotomist is to draw blood specimens from patients for laboratory tests. The job includes establishing a professional relationship with the patient, selecting and preparing the puncture site, collecting specimens, preparing and maintaining equipment, and caring for the patient after specimen collection. Other duties include entering data into a computer and performing clerical duties associated with lab test record keeping.
The training consists of two terms of noncredit lecture/lab courses. Upon successful completion of both terms, the student will have the necessary skills to seek employment. Once employed full-time (35 hours a week) for one year, they will meet the Route 3 eligibility requirements set by the American Society of Clinical Pathology (ASCP) to qualify to take the national Phlebotomy Technician PBT certification exam at additional cost. Certification is not currently required to work as a phlebotomist in Oregon. Students must take both terms for successful completion of the course.
