Do you need a licence in Arizona?
Arizona does not require a state licence or certificate to work as a phlebotomist — only California, Nevada, Washington and Louisiana do. Employers there almost always ask for a national certification such as the NHA's CPT, the ASCP's PBT, or AMT's RPT, and most programs are built to prepare you for one of them.
Common questions about Phoenix College
How much does the Phoenix College phlebotomy program cost?
Tuition runs about $700. That figure is what the school publishes for the program itself; textbooks, scrubs, a background check, and the certification exam fee are usually billed separately, so ask for a full cost sheet before you enrol.
How long is the Phoenix College phlebotomy program?
The program runs 16 weeks. Phlebotomy is one of the fastest routes into healthcare — most programs finish in a few weeks to a single semester, far short of a two-year degree. Clinical externship hours are part of that time, not an extra step afterwards.

Does the Phoenix College program include a clinical externship?
Yes. An externship puts you in a real lab or draw station with live patients, which is what most employers and — in regulated states — the certifying body want to see.
Where is Phoenix College located?
The program is based in Phoenix, Arizona. Check with the school which campus or clinical site your cohort actually meets at, as it is not always the main address.
