Ive just been in the Healthcare Administration program for one week and Im so anxious to sign on everyday because the two instructors i have Mrs.Kerr and Mrs.Perkins are both thorough,patient and communicate very well and their professionalism is second to none.I joinedt the program with extensive patient accounting background, and medical administrative background but after 2 yrs of caring for my brother who recently passed from brain cancer i realized I knew 15 medical softwares but wasn't proficient in any of the Microsoft apps because i never had to use them. After staring as a patient information operator at Mt .Sini at 18 , i went into meical front desk /registrar at Lenox Hill, billing and collections in orthopaedic surgery at NY Presbyterian and many other positions but 25 yrs later didnt know basic software of excel (accept) to do data entry in already created spreadsheets,no Powerpoint knowledge or any other program but basic word and i know I needed more if I wanted to present myself in supervisory positions in the medical fielsd so now although i know extensive medical terminology and Im reviewing things Ive known for yrs Im learning new office software and enhancing my skills to seize every opportunity I can and Im so thankful to Grace Institute for accepting me into their program. Every employee that i have encountered thus far from technical support, to interviewer just everyone goes out of their way to reassure you that if you put inthe work,stay focused and engage you will receive extensive support from all of them in clss and beyond even after you graduate. if your seeking to broaden your horizon and you've tried the rest ,now go enroll at Grace Institute and try the best ,you wont regret it . My first week was very enlightening and i look forward to completion. Respectfully,Lillene Truluck

Grace has really broadened my knowledge, sharpened my skills, and uncovered talents in me that I didn't even know I had. Grace has shown me to believe in myself and realize that I am much more than what I thought myself to be. Since coming to Grace I've discovered elegance, generosity, joy, and unmerited favor from God. I am simply filled with Grace.

I am a current student of Grace Institute, which is in New York City. I started in May 2014, and is looking forward to graduate in October 2014.
I am learning Microsoft suite, keyboarding, business writing, and career development. The staff is helpful, approachable and knowledgeable.

The experience here is awesome, informative and exciting.

The program is free tuition and is available for women in age range from 18-65.
I will recommend any woman who is thinking off going back into the work field or who is in transition to give them a call. You will not regret it.
