Trident Technical College - Health, Human and Personal Services

HEALTH, HUMAN AND PERSONAL SERVICES

The demand for health care and personal services professionals is growing. As the baby-boom generation ages and people remain active later in life, health care and personal services industries will need more professionals in a wider variety of fields. These fields include health information management, human services, medical assisting, pharmacy, radiology, dental services, nursing, fitness and nutrition, cosmetology and barbering, and veterinary care.

Trident Technical College can prepare you for a career in any of these fields and more, with state-of-the-art

facilities, hands-on learning, clinicals, simulation labs and experienced instructors. Graduates find jobs with mental health centers, family services agencies and addiction treatment programs as well as in hospitals, doctors’ offices, nursing homes, clinics, fitness and wellness facilities, salons, and resorts.
