NAPTP Grants PCT Ability to Administer National Exam

Phlebotomy Viles

The National Association for Phlebotomy Technician Professionals (NAPTP) recognizes Phlebotomy Career Training as one of the only training schools in Michigan to provide students with a detailed scope of practice and code of ethics. Because of this, students can now opt to take the challenging 240-question phlebotomy technician certification exam through PCT instead of through the national association. It is an honor that the NAPTP found that PCT met and exceeded national standards, and our students can now reap the benefits.

National Association for Phlebotomy Technician Professionals, or NAPTP, is the first association to recognize the professional abilities and expertise of phlebotomists practicing in the field who demonstrate integrity, continuing education, collaboration among peers and attention to patient safety, comfort, privacy, dignity and rights.

"To provide exceptional, quality education at affordable prices to everyone, and to strive to promote and uphold patient rights, safety, comfort, privacy and dignity."

- PCT Mission Statement

The association grants professional membership and certification at the national level to those phlebotomists who have a proven track record in these areas. Membership demands are tough, requiring three letters of recommendation, more than two years of full-time experience and several CEU’s. However, the aspiring member can instead challenge these requirements by taking the 240-question certification exam, which is great news for PCT students.

The NAPTP recently granted PCT permission to offer this challenging exam to students of the Phlebotomy and Cardio-Phlebotomy Technician Certification Courses based upon its evaluation of PCT's rigorous curriculum and clinical placement. NAPTP board members decided that PCT met and exceeded the national standards in training methods and authorized our professional instructors to administer the exam.

The NAPTP isn’t only interested in its members’ ability to pass the exam, but highly values how their ethical principles guide them in their daily jobs. The association understands that a code of ethics and scope of practice must be in place for professional phlebotomists to perform at their best. The fact that our own Nancy Kimmel, RN, PhD, MSN-FNP, has recently begun lobbying with state representatives to get the phlebotomy profession licensed was a pivotal factor in the NAPTP's decision.

We are proud to announce that Phlebotomy Career Training is backed by the NAPTP as one of the only phlebotomy training schools in Michigan to provide students with a detailed scope of practice and code of ethics.
