Medicine has a very distinct and highly specialized language. It is necessary for any student wishing to pursue a successful career in the medical field needs to acquire a comprehension of this system of communication, including Allied Healthcare professionals. Students of the Medical Terminology online course will receive thorough instruction in developing fluency with medical terms. Medical vocabulary will be taught with specific emphasis on root (or stem words), prefixes, suffixes and abbreviations. By the end of this medical terminology online course students will be expected to have a basic comprehension of medical terms and be able to communicate accurately to their peers in the field.

Note: For successful completion of this course, it is recommended that students are familiar with Biology I or its equivalent.
