“Mildun Training Center of Illinois is an amazing School in Wheeling, IL.
This school has many opportunities for students who want to pursue their careers as medical assistants, medical billers, phlebotomists, or dental assistants.
Mildun Training Center of Illinois is one of those places that sets a comfortable and easy-going atmosphere in the classroom. Students are encouraged to participate in group discussions during theory lessons and practical hands-on training sessions. My teachers were highly devoted to their jobs and taught in positive and kind manner. They strived to make our experiences as students the best they could be, even during times of unprecedented COVID-19-related lockdowns. The teachers went an extra mile to quickly organize hybrid remote and in-person learning, and were always available to assist at off-hours.
Our group was "the first wave" during pandemic COVID-19. All teachers showed a personal approach to each student. We had Zoom classes as a group and private lessons with each student for 4 weeks. Moreover, upon completing Mildun Training Center School, students were offered multiple positions in medical field settings.
My journey did not stop when I completed the course; MTCI helped find me my current position as a medical biller.”

В 2008 году я со своей семьёй переехали в Чикаго с Республики Беларусь на постоянное место жительства. По семейным обстоятельствам приходилось работать на различных работах, чтобы материально обеспечивать свою семью.В 2014 году на семейном совете пришли к выводу, что надо приобретать специальность и иметь стабильную работу, было принято решение закончить медицинские курсы. Проанализировав информацию о существующих курсах определились на MILDUN TRAINING CENTER OF ILLINOIS, которые на протяжении 20 лет готовили специалистов для медицинских офисов. Курс обучения длился в течение 4 месяцев и занял 16 воскресений. Практические занятия проходили на индивидуальной основе в удобное для студентов время. В октябре 2014 года закончила курсы и получила сертификат по специальностям: EKG/ECG, Medical billing coding and Phlebotomy Training.
После окончания курсов было предложено большое количество мест для работы по специальности, но по воле судьбы и состоянию здоровья работать по вышеуказанным специальностям не представилась возможным.
По моей рекомендации эти курсы закончила моя дочь Shablovskaya Olga и работает Advocate Aurora Health
Advocate Medical Group Immediate Care.
Хочется сказать огромное спасибо, что существуют такие курсы с профессиональными преподавателями, индивидуальным подходом, которые обучают жизненно необходимым специальностям и предоставляют работу после окончания курсов
С уважением
