Employment opportunities exist in all types of health care facilities and settings.

According to the 2011-12 edition of the Occupational Outlook Handbook of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the employment of medical records and health information technicians is expected to keep growing faster than the average of all occupations through 2020.

The HIM program is offered 100% online! The online format allows you to advance your education, while maintaining full-time employment. Gain hands-on experience in virtual directed practice with coding and health care information systems. Make valuable professional connections during the management practicum as you learn decision making and problem resolution strategies.
