Presenting the new IBMC Jingle…

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

The Institute of Business & Medical Careers is a school that is serious about life changing career education but we also know when to let our hair down and have a little bit of fun. Recently IBMC got a new jingle to help with our marketing efforts. The marketing team was very excited to introduce the jingle to the staff and students of IBMC so they wanted to present it in a creative way. What better way than to have a handful of students make a little music video?

Jesse, Rachele, Jolynne, Brittany, Jimmy, Christine deliver a break through performance in this video that is soon to be a hit all across the internet. And with only 3 minutes of rehearsal time! Be sure to push play and check out the new IBMC music video. You will be able to say you knew them before they were famous.

Thursday, June 11th, 2009

A few weeks back IBMC bought a Flip HD video camera to give to students with instructions to film their life inside and outside of IBMC. Annaliese is the first student in this new project. She is pursuing an Allied Health Degree in Medical Assisting at the Fort Collins campus. This video is the second in a series of video taken from the footage she shot.

IBMC classroom experience | Basic Principles of Medical Office

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

The main purpose of this blog is to share with you life at the Institute of Business & Medical Careers. The biggest part of life at IBMC is the classroom. I am going to be sitting in on classes every week and sharing that experience with here on the IBMC Blog.

This week I visited Basic Principles of Medical Office which is taken by students in Healthcare Programs.

I take a seat in the back of the room. There are 12 computer stations available for students. So even when the class is full it would be a nice sized class. The students come in, sit down, and start to set up for class. Logging into the computer, chit chatting with each other, and asking a few questions of the instructor.

The instructor, Karen Wiggins, is very friendly and engaged with her students. She asks each student about the progress they are having with their homework and reading through the text book. She then begins to teach on what wil be expected of them when they work in a medical office. She teaches at a good pace and is always open to questions. As I listened to her I realized how much patients take for granted when they visit a doctor’s office. There is a lot to be done, things like submitting insurance and arranging referrals.

The class goes from 1PM to 4:50PM but every hour there is a break. Right at 1:50 the instructor calls for a break. And right at 2PM class starts again. Time at IBMC is very valued and never seems to be wasted.

After break the students take a test for which they seem well prepared. I was impressed by a lot of things as I sat in on the class. For one the students are very engaged with the teacher and with each other. And the teacher gives each student a good amount of individual attention. But mostly I noticed how focused the teaching is on the student’s future job experience. These students will be ready for work on Day One after graduating.
