When Llana began exploring post-secondary options, she was determined to find more than just a program. After careful research, she chose Eastern College’s Medical Office Administration program, a decision that she says changed the course of her life.

“I was searching for the best school that could offer both practical training and a supportive learning environment, and that’s exactly what I found at Eastern College. The instructors genuinely cared about our success, and that encouragement helped me believe in myself, even during the most challenging times.”

Throughout her program, Llana built the technical and professional skills needed to thrive in a healthcare setting. From mastering medical terminology and office procedures to learning how to communicate effectively with patients and professionals, she developed a strong foundation for her future career. What stood out most to her was the sense of community and encouragement that came from her instructors and classmates.

One of her most memorable experiences was completing her practicum placement, where everything she had learned came together.

“It was the first time I felt like everything I learned came full circle… that moment gave me so much confidence in what I could do.”

Today, Llana is proud to be starting her career in the healthcare field, carrying with her not only the skills she gained, but also a renewed belief in herself and her abilities.

“My education at Eastern College gave me the confidence and skills to step into the healthcare field with purpose, and it has truly changed the course of my life.”
