The Adult Diploma Program offers individuals 18 years old or older the opportunity to earn their high

school diploma and an industry-recognized credential at the same time at no cost to the student.

Heartland Tech offers four Adult Diploma programs: Dental Assisting, Medical Assisting, Phlebotomy

Technology, and Fundamental Welding. Students must complete the program requirements, pass the

associated industry-recognized credential and earn a composite score of a 12 on the WorkKeys test. This

is all available on the Heartland Tech campus.

This year four individuals completed the requirements and earned their high school diploma issued by

the Ohio Department of Education. One student earned both the Ohio State Dental Assistant

Radiographer Certificate and Registered Dental Assistant credential through the Dental Assisting

program. Three students earned their Certified Clinical Medical Assisting credential through the Medical

Assisting program.
