Mission Statement

Contra Costa Medical Career College will assist its students in their development of good judgment, clinical and interpersonal skills, and scientific knowledge, which will enable them to function competently as a member of any health care team. We will supply our students with the necessary tools and technical training needed to function in a variety of medical settings. We believe in producing an educated, responsible member of society equipped with the skills and principles needed to be an exceptional, efficient and safe health care provider.

Contra Costa Medical Career College is a small, private vocational training school. The school was formed in response to the growing need for qualified, entry-level healthcare professionals in this community.

CCMCC offers low tuition, flexible schedules, and instructors who are experts in their fields of study.

Our class sizes are kept small, so that we can concentrate on quality instruction. We work hand-in-hand with employers in the community to ensure the most up to date curriculum possible. All of our programs are career-focused, so our graduates are prepared to make a positive impact from the start of their new career in the healthcare industry.
Successful students will qualify to take the National exam specific to the program completed.
