At HealthCareerU (formerly PhlebotomyU), we believe that quality education should be accessible — no matter your schedule or experience level. That’s why we offer weekday, evening, and weekend phlebotomy classes throughout the year, designed to help you reach your certification goals on your own timeline.
Whether you’re just beginning your journey into healthcare or bringing prior field experience, HealthCareerU has a program and schedule that fits your life.
Upcoming Course Options
We offer a variety of phlebotomy training pathways, each tailored to your level of experience and professional goals. All courses are approved by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH-LFS) and include the required classroom instruction, hands-on training, and exam preparation needed to earn your California CPT I License.
CPT I Full Course
Ideal for: Students with little or no prior phlebotomy experience.
Our most comprehensive program includes classroom instruction, practical lab sessions, national exam preparation, and a clinical externship placement. You’ll graduate fully prepared for CPT I certification and entry-level healthcare roles.
Didactic-Only Course
Ideal for: Students with 40–1,040 hours of verified phlebotomy experience.
This course fulfills California’s classroom (didactic) requirement for CPT I licensure. It’s the perfect option for individuals who have already worked in phlebotomy but still need the educational component to qualify for certification.
Online Advanced Course
Ideal for: Experienced professionals with 1,040+ hours (6+ months) of supervised phlebotomy experience.
This 100% online, CDPH-approved program allows you to complete your didactic coursework from anywhere while preparing for your national certification exam. It’s flexible, affordable, and designed for working professionals.
Blood Withdrawal Course
Ideal for: Research assistants, clinical coordinators, and medical staff performing non-diagnostic blood draws.
This short, skill-based course provides hands-on venipuncture training focused on safety, technique, and universal precautions. Graduates receive a Certificate of Participation upon completion.
