Colorado Springs Medical Assistant School

Medical Assistant Training in Colorado Springs

Colorado Springs Medical Assistant School is a career training center specializing in medical assistant training. Its program is taught in real medical offices in Colorado Springs, with instructors who are actively practicing in the profession, so students practice with the equipment and tools used in daily clinical work. The school presents itself as a joint initiative between Zollege and local medical offices.

An Intensive 18-Week Program

The training is structured as an 18-week course designed to enter the job market as a medical assistant. The school states that the program can be completed without student debt, with affordable tuition and flexible payment plans, including weekly payments. The admissions process is organized in four steps: learn about the program and speak with the admissions team, complete the application by choosing a start date and payment plan, pay a deposit that is applied toward tuition, and complete the program. Those who start class receive a free set of scrubs.

Practice in Medical Offices and Job Preparation

Classes take place in real medical offices, with direct practice on the procedures that employers in the field look for. The school offers flexible schedules and a learning environment equipped with the same technology used in today's medical offices. In addition to technical content, it includes job search support: résumé review, interview tips, and guidance from job assistance specialists.

Start Dates and Office Hours

The school schedules several start dates throughout the year. The next class indicated at the time of review began on October 24, with a schedule of 1:30 PM to 6:00 PM on Saturdays. Admissions support is available Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM (Mountain Time) and Saturdays from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM; it is closed on Sundays.

Industry Context and Origin of the Project

The school frames its offering within the growth of medical assistant employment: it cites a projected 13% increase between 2025 and 2035 and a national median wage of $45,690 per year, according to the Occupational Outlook Handbook from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (May 2025). Zollege was founded in 2010 as Vandelay Education by Dr. Thomas Ince, a dentist, who promoted a shorter, hands-on training model without loans; his brother Ryan, a physician, brought that same approach to the medical assisting field.

Accreditation and Location

The school states that it is approved and regulated by the Private Occupational School Board of the Colorado Department of Higher Education. Its campus is located in Colorado Springs, in the state of Colorado.
