The following is a list that  indicates the degree programs that are available in Georgia for the health careers identified in this guide. To find the specific degree awarded by each school, see the individual pages for each health profession.  Some of these programs are jointly administered with other institutions.  Many schools have satellite campuses and web-based programs that increase accessibility to their educational programs.  For more information on the programs, talk to your career counselor or make a direct contact with the institution.  Graduation from an accredited program is often required in order to obtain certification, registration or licensure.  Ask about the accreditation status of programs in which you are interested.  (This is not a complete listing of educational programs offered by these schools, but it does include the programs for health careers covered in this guide.)
