FORT WORTH, Texas – Gatlin Education Services announced today it has reached an agreement with CVS Pharmacy that will give students an important leg up in the job market. CVS will offer its externship program to students in several CVS districts who are taking Gatlin’s pharmacy technician online career training program provided basic qualifications are met.

Gatlin’s nationally recognized pharmacy technician program is available at hundreds of continuing education departments at community colleges and universities across the United States.

The course aims to provide high school graduates and individuals seeking new careers the skills and knowledge that will enable them to qualify for entry-level positions in pharmacies as well as prepare for the mandated national certification.

2008-08-07T09:43:00.000-07:00

FORT WORTH, Texas - Due to an increasingly health-conscious society and a related rise in health clubs and exercise facilities, there are many job openings for certified professionals in the fitness industry. In fact, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that employment of fitness workers is expected to increase 27 percent over the 2006-2016 decade, much faster than the average for all occupations.

Individuals wanting to launch a rewarding career or enhance their health and fitness can gain the required knowledge by taking any of the latest online training programs offered by Gatlin Education Services. New certificate course titles are:

· Fitness Business Management
· Personal Fitness Training & Group Exercise for Older Adults

The first course, Fitness Business Management, prepares students to implement and manage a health-fitness department and personal training program as a Strategic Business Unit. In Personal Fitness Training & Group Exercise for Older Adults, students will learn the social and physiological aspects of aging as well as the role of exercise in improving health, fitness, function and quality of life in adults. Both of these courses provide students with an optional 6-week internship to practice learned concepts in a real-world health and fitness setting.
