AKRON, OH, UNITED STATES, March 3, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — A new opportunity for career-focused healthcare training is coming to Summit County this spring as Akron Medical Assistant School prepares to open its Fairlawn campus at 66 S Miller Rd, Suite 102.
The school will offer an in-depth 18-week medical assistant program, designed to give students extended hands-on training and real clinical exposure before entering the workforce. The program combines structured online learning with in-person lab instruction and practical training delivered inside an active healthcare practice.
“As healthcare continues to evolve, communities need skilled professionals who are ready to step into clinical roles with confidence,” said Chris Lofton, CEO of Zollege. “Our 18-week model provides students the additional time and repetition needed to build strong clinical foundations.”
Through its partnership with GameDay Men’s Health – Fairlawn, students will gain firsthand experience in patient intake, vital sign collection, clinical support procedures, and day-to-day medical office operations. Training inside a working clinic allows students to develop practical confidence and workplace readiness in a professional setting.
The Fairlawn campus is designed to serve students across the Akron area who are seeking a structured, affordable pathway into healthcare without committing to years of traditional schooling.
