Two programs. Different entry points. Both with practicum placement included.

Two paths into healthcare at OIHI. The PSW Certificate is for people drawn to hands-on patient care — long-term care, home care, community settings. The MOA Diploma is for the admin side: scheduling, billing, records. Both run hybrid and have financial aid available for qualifying students.
