              I decided I wanted to get my CPC certification to become a medical billing and coder. After a quick google search I reached out to a couple different colleges about taking short courses to obtain the certification needed. Florida Technical College was the first college to reach out to me and offered the shorter course length so it was the college I chose to peruse. I began classes in May of 2022 and took my final exam March 2, 2023. No where did the specify exactly what certification I was getting. I passed my class, and got an email stating I received my certification and it was in the mail to me. Come to find out, the certification I got is a NCICS certification that is not sought after by any employers, unless they are looking for coder with insurance coders specifically. Even then a coder still needs their CPC along with the NCICS. I paid $16,000 for this course and can’t get a job. I was promised assistance with finding a job after graduation where they have only pushed for me to enroll in their bachelor program. I requested to help me with my resume and finding a job before I would consider possibly furthering my education later. I then heard nothing back from them about the matter. It wasn’t until today, 4/11/2023, when I was declined for a job opportunity because I did not have an active CPC certification required for the job did I realize I didn’t have the certification I was going for. After further digging and going back and forth with the career coordinator at FTC, did they explain to me that in order to get my CPC I have to enroll in their bachelor program and spend more money. When in the beginning I could’ve went through the AAPC website and paid for a course and tests to get my CPC for less than the original cost of the 9-month course I took at FTC. I believe they are intentionally withholding information from students, and making them believe they are receiving a different certificate then push them into a bachelors degree to get more money.
