Launch your healthcare career with free online PCT training. Wyoming PCTs earn $38,000+ annually across 26 hospitals. Train at your own pace and pay only when you're ready to certify.
Ideal for candidates with prior patient care experience who need certification to validate their skills for Wyoming employers.
New to the field? If you have no prior experience, you must complete a Self-Managed 100-Hour Externship to build hands-on confidence needed to complete the program and prepare to challenge the AMCA PCTC.
EHired does NOT place, arrange, or supervise externships. All externships are self-managed. You are responsible for identifying and securing your own externship site at a hospital or healthcare facility. EHired provides state-specific resources and guidance, but placement is not guaranteed.
