Home Stretch

Hello Students,

Last week of CC coming up! Last day of CC is June 5th. See me if you still need additional hours and we'll come up with plan. Without completed hours, I cannot give you a certificate of completion.

I'll have your final exam study guide ready on June 3rd. Finals schedules will be announced in class on the blog too. We're almost finished....so finish strong!

In the meantime, please study medical terminology, MCG, and Legal Terms. These are areas of the exam that you'll need the most study time on.

Interviewing? Please let me help....I would be happy to do a mock interview with you. Please bring your portfolio and extra copies of your resume to all interview appointments.

Please see me for assistance for summer and fall educational opportunities too.

Take care,

~Mrs. Erceg

Hello Fabulous People

Hello Med Occs ~

A reminder....please complete your "Credit by Exam" forms. Be very careful about the SS#. Please keep the form very safe until it is returned to me. This form provides you with college credit for having taken Med Occs.

Great day today. I saw a few of you ooozing with maturity today during discussion. Nice.

Thanks and have a great evening!

p.s. Anyone going to the CMAA Seminar on Saturday? If so, please let me know!

Have a Good Weekend

Take good care of yourselves this weekend! You've worked hard and now you're in the home stretch....only about 4 weeks left of school. Let's finish strong.

Next week: Learning about Payroll - please bring in a payroll stub if you have one.

ALSO: Memorize your social security number for the Credit by Exam form (college credit for
taking this R.O.P. course).

I'll see some of you tomorrow!

Porfolios Received

WOW....do those portfolios look good! I've opened a few and I'll let you all know if there are any changes or additions.

Deep and troubling subject today.....signs of depression and suicide prevention. The medical field isn't always glamorous and fun, right? We have to take on some really serious responsibilities and one of them is properly assessing patients and clients. I am VERY PROUD of all of you for giving our speaker from "Teens for Life" your attention. Good comments and questions too!

FOR NEXT WEEK: Please memorize your social security number so you can fill out a form regarding "CREDIT BY EXAM" - you fill out the form, get an "A" or a "B" in Med Occs and then you do not have to take certain classes at LPC. ALSO - Please bring to class a check stub from your paycheck. You will not turn this in, but use it as a reference when we do payroll processing next week. Ask your parents...what's the difference between a "W2" and and "W4"? Hmmmm.

See you soon and please call me with any information that will benefit our current and future relationship.....remember: ANTICIPATE THE NEED. Thanks very, very much.

Take care,

~Mrs. Erceg
