How ACE Surgical Assisting School Training Stacks Up

ACE Surgical Assistant training program was designed with working professionals in mind. Our surgical first assist program and policies reflect that focus on the needs of our students. We strive to provide the best possible education while maintaining flexibility, accountability, and standards of excellence including:

• No Bait and Switch - We dont include any feature in our program that isnt essential for student success. When you call ACE, we wont lie or negotiate
  you down.
• REAL Simulation Training - Provide extensive simulation training as preclinical preparation so students can perform skillfully on vulnerable patients in the presence of judgmental surgeons.
• Semester Credits - ACE became a vocational school so we could award our students the number of semester credits rightfully earned without regard for the cost of the credit. In our case, the state authorized 52 credits because the program was so comprehensive.
• Location of Classes - We present most of our classes in or near major cities to encourage enrollment. If you ever see us advertise a 'rural' location, it is because we would be presenting the class in a hospital at their invitation.
• Accredited - We created a program that builds on and then exceeds accreditation standards. We are 100% committed to accreditation but our
  most prominent program feature will always be quality of training and success of our students.
• Focused on Helping You - The main reason the ACE Surgical Assistant Program was created is so students would be able to accomplish what they most desire - have their dream job in surgery with independence and a 6-figure income.
• Give You The Facts to Make Your Decision - We tell you about the benefits of our program without disparaging other programs. We even help you find another program if ours wont work for you.

Simulation training in the medical field is hot. Animal and cadaver training is becoming obsolete. The newest training techniques are based on theories about how motor skills are acquired and expertise is attained. Instead of training on animals or cadavers, training on simulation models better prepares you for operating room experiences. Read Teaching Surgical Skills - Changes in the Wind to find out why.
