​VAT differs
from ALL of the other programs
in the following ways:
                     
Picture
      
               
           1.  We teach the Science-Based Technique 
                           - they all teach the Evidence-Based Technique.
           2.  The Science-Based Technique is advanced 21st Century  
                          - Evidence-Based is 19th and 20th century.
           3.  Our program is totally and exclusively dedicated to Vein 
                      Access and Point-of-Care procedures.
                          - they teach a Terminology 'of the entire body' class,
                            English, Communication, Claims filing - courses
                            that have nothing to do with phlebotomy. 

Picture
               
           4.  We DO NOT require:  an application
                                                   a criminal background check
                                                   a drug screen
                                                   an immunization record, current 

                                                   a physical exam
                                                   literacy testing
                                                   math testing

                     - they require ALL of these and more, at your expense.
         5.  Our program is only 4 days - ALL SCIENCE, ALL APPLIED.

                     - their programs are 9 months, no science, trial and error.

Picture
                      
                     6.  Our program is taught by Bachelor's degreed individuals whose 
                          field of study is in Biology, Pre-med, Med Tech - ALL SCIENCE
                          -the other programs are taught by other phlebotomists - 
                           non-degreed, non-science educated staff.


                    7.  There are usually only 2-4 students per class
                          - there are anywhere from 15-30 students per their class.

Picture
              
              8.  Our program starts almost weekly - because of the 2-4 student 
                    attendance.
                            - their programs run twice per year, because of the 9 months 
                              and the multiple students.


              9.  Our program requires only two sticks - this skill is learned long
                    before you stick any human - there are no 'practice' draws.
                           - their programs require 90-100 sticks, trial-n-error, on 
                             each other, over the 9 months or 2 semesters.

Picture
                 
                    10. Our program cost $985.00 and this in ALL inclusive:  book, kit 
                    and all supplies.  No other costs.
                           - their programs range from $1500.00 - $25,000.00 and
                           students pay for all of the above listed items in #4 and
                           extra for books, scrubs, insurance, and a certification fee.
                          


                      The DIFFERENCES are many and SIGNIFICANT.  Be sure to compare!
