Overview

Are you ready to step into a fast-paced job that helps with diagnostic care? The phlebotomy certificate gives you the essential knowledge to perform venipuncture, capillary and skin puncture safely and accurately, preparing you to support lab teams and patient care settings. You can pursue certification as a phlebotomy technician through an Ohio Department of Higher Education–approved agency; however, because this coursework does not include a practicum, you’ll need employer documentation of required venipunctures and capillary punctures when you apply for testing.
