Matt McGill, SCC Alum, testing biomedical equipment

"During my time in the Biomedical Equipment Technician program at Spokane Community College, I gained valuable knowledge and hands-on experience that helped prepare me for a career in the healthcare technology field. I enjoyed most of the classes, particularly those that focused on electronics, anatomy, and medical instrumentation. The instructors were very knowledgeable, supportive, and clearly invested in our success. I believe that you get out what you put in. Show up, attend class, ask questions, and be present. Overall, the program laid a strong foundation for my future as a BMET. I am pleased and also a little bummed that the Biomed program is changing into more Biomedical focus and that I won’t get to see it." – Matt McGill, military veteran, and SCC Alum.
