Tatum Keuhne While in high school, it was always my goal to attend East
Valley Institute of Technology (EVIT). The minute I walked
Health Care Administration Program into their Medical Assistant (MA) room and saw the
(EVIT - Medical Assistant Program) students giving each other injections, I knew this was the
program for me. I attended the nine-month MA program
Online Campus during my senior year, and a month before graduation,
Graduated 2019 they offered me the opportunity to begin Pima Medical
Institute’s Health Care Administration (HCA) program.
I loved the idea that the classes were all online and it
would provide a fast track for me to get my associate
degree.

I just turned 21, I’m making good
money at a great job with potential

for growth and I just finished paying
off my school tuition.

EVIT was actually the most fun I had in high school! After
completing my externship at a primary care office, I
started as an MA the day after graduating from high
school. I worked full time while attending the HCA
program online. I found the Pima Medical instructors
to be really helpful, understanding and great at
communication. This associate degree program totally
prepared me by giving me the knowledge and skills
for my current job working in Human Resources. Our
company has doubled in size since I started, they’ve told
me there is room for me to grow and I know this is my
forever job.

I just turned 21, I’m making good money at a great job
with potential for growth and I just finished paying off my
school tuition. Believe it or not, every Sunday night I get
excited to go to work. I would definitely recommend EVIT
and Pima Medical to anyone looking for a career path
into the medical field.
