On January 25th, the Allen School congratulated a whole new class of medical professionals
who completed the Medical Insurance Billing and Coding program, and are embarking on
their new careers! These students have formed wonderful bonds and friendships within
their classrooms and with their instructors, but are very excited for their personal achieve-
ments and accomplishments! We are very excited for each of them!
A few of our graduates had some words of wisdom to share for the incoming Allen School
Students!
The Allen school has been a great experience. Personally, I have learned so
much information to make me the best Coder and Biller that I could be.
Professionally I have not had any answers yet from jobs I applied to but I
know good things come to those who wait. I would not put it pass me that I will receive an an-
swer back soon. My experience in the online classroom was very different but exciting. I took
online classes before in college but it was mostly for assignments with no teacher that was teach-
ing. This was a great experience for me. I have met so many new people from many diverse back-
grounds and that includes students and instructors. I am glad to have met some of them. The stu-
dents in my class I was with from day one and we helped each other through our struggles. All I
can say is do not think your coming into something easy. Its pretty tough but with concentration,
practice and time management you will be fine. It’s an awesome experience and you learn all you
can for the whole time your here. All of the professors were helpful and they are available inside
and outside of the classroom. Good luck new comers you can do it!
When I first started the Allen School I was nervous at what to expect, but I
do not regret anything as it is a wonderful school. I have met so many good
people here and now I know what to look forward to as a professional. My classmates are my fami-
ly. I have the most wonderful professors and classmates a girl could ever ask for. The compassion
and knowledge we have to help one another and to build our confidence up when we our down al-
ways was helpful. We have had our sad paths along the way like losing family members, and our
happy moments like getting an A on a quiz or just getting a phone call from our classmates and
talking until 1am in the morning. I share this with anyone who is starting The Allen school. You will
not regret anything related to what knowledge you come out with or the friendships you obtain
during your time here. I am blessed to know now that while I was in school I made an impact on
someone’s life. Now, I have experiences and memories to remind me of how I got to where I am
now and where I am going in my future! Thank you Allen School.
Catherine was nominated by her instructor, Karen Staley. Karen’s nomination:
“Catherine is an exceptional student. Her participation, combined with her harmless humor is
contagious! She brings to the table a strong sense of awareness of the subject matter; displaying
her ability to retain information which will assist her in applying this gained knowledge in the work
place. Catherine's overall character makes her enjoyable to have as a student, easy to get along
with, and proves that she is definitely a team player. The qualities that Catherine exudes make me
proud to have taken part in her journey to success! She is the epitome of an exceptional student
and one that Allen School should be proud to represent in her future employment endeavors!”
What did Catherine have to say about this accomplishment?
I want to thank you so very much for such a nice recognition as winning Student of the Mod. I am so pleased. The
challenges that Allen School has provided to me through their classes since beginning this course of Medical Coding
and Billing has been, in a word, exciting. I try to meet the trials that each course subject brings with as much enthusi-
asm and optimism as possible, and I can only say that my achievements would never have been possible without the
wonderful, thorough and professional instructors that I have been privileged to learn from. Each and every one has
contributed something of great value to my experience and I can only hope to take those lessons with me into what I
hope will be an exciting career in my near future. Thank you and thanks so much to Professor Staley who recom-
mended this nomination for me.
Congratulations

“National Wear Red
Day” for heart disease!
1 out 3 women die of
heart disease.
Heart disease kills
more people each
year than all other
causes of death com-
bined.
Heart disease is the
single most preventa-
ble form of death.
Just 3-5 hours of aero-
bic activity each week
will significantly de-
crease your chances of
getting heart disease.
