Attention all Medical Coders!Are you ready for ICD-10-CM Implementation?
Start planning today! Beginning January 2012, HGTC’s Nursing & Allied Health Institute will have updated program training available.
SPRING 2012Part 1: Diagnostic Coding ICD-10-CM Anatomy and Pathophysi-ology will introduce the theoretical principals involved with ICD-10 that will differentiate it from its predecessor.
FALL 2012Part 2: Diagnostic Coding ICD-10-CMwill introduce the actual code formats (which are not yet available) Each class will consist of forty hours (40) of classroom instruction. At the completion of the class, students will receive a certificate from HGTC. The mandatory transition from ICD-9-CM to ICD-10-CM on 10/01/2013 marks a huge transformation in medical coding. The code choices have become more specific therefore increasing the number of codes to choose from. The greater level of detail in ICD-10-CM demands that the coders have an in-depth knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and patho-physiology to assist in the selection of the most appropriate code in the new coding system.

Welcome!A Letter From the Vice President…
Due to the current economy many people look at Continuing Education classes as difficult to afford, however these classes can be much more valuable than you think! Looking past the price of these classes is important as they enable you to learn new skills or upgrade your present skills to improve career and financial situations.
When most people hear “Continuing Education” they immediately think of pursuing a bachelor’s degree or going for a more advanced degree, however consider taking a short-term Certificate program. You might even start with just one class that is designed to improve employment skills. For example, completing a computer class will make you more valuable to your existing or potential employer.
We offer a variety of reasonably priced courses such as computer software, starting a small business, trades classes and more. We also offer personal enrichment courses such as cooking, gardening and dance classes.
Options are abundant for people who want to learn! It is never too late for anyone who goes back to school to reap the benefits of Continuing Education!
As we start preparing the catalog for the Summer and Fall 2012 semesters, email us with any thoughts of classes we can add to our course offerings at ceinfo@hgtc.edu.
Enjoy your class!
Greg Mitchell, Vice PresidentWorkforce Development & Continuing EducationProvost, Myrtle Beach Campus
What is Continuing Education?Continuing Education is training for adults of all ages and back-grounds. These classes are designed for non-degree seeking adults who desire specific skills to enhance their working lives, need continu-ing education hours to stay current in their field or are life-long learn-ers who want to learn something new. We offer courses, workshops and seminars in the day, evening and weekend, on campus, online and off-site at business and industries.

Where do I park? There are designated areas for student parking on each of our campuses. Parking passes will be mailed out with your confirmation and are also available from Campus Security and/or Continuing Education offices on each campus. Place the pass on the passenger-side of the dashboard in your car whenever you’re on campus.

Part One – Relationship Based SellingFeb 15, 9:00am - 11:30amDid you know that is costs six times more to attract a new customer than it does to keep one? How we acknowledge the customer and determine their needs from the beginning establishes any future re-lationship and rapport. We will discuss ways to improve listening and actively participate in “improv” activities that will “retrain the brain” to improve listening and relationship skills and ultimately make these skills more retainable and FUN!
Part Two – Stages of Selling (The Selling Process)Feb 22, 9:00am - 11:30amNeil Rackman’s SPIN selling® model is an effective example of a consultative selling process and needs-creation sell-ing approach to sales. SPIN® teaches how to be customer focused and build rapport with the buyer. We will discuss this approach and the four stages to a sale as well as other sales strategies. You will participate in interactive impro-visational exercises that reinforce fast thinking and presentation skills.
Part Three – Value and Service-Based Selling (Strategic Selling)Feb 29, 9:00am - 11:30amKey strategies to yield more sales growth included learning how to identify your best customers – promising a lot but de-livering more. We will discuss the impor-tance of presenting a “service culture” in your organization so that employees un-derstand their role in relation to customer service and revenue generation. We will use interactive improvisational exercises and role play activities that reinforce customer service skills. The class will end with a review and recap of the three classes and a question and answer ses-sion.For more information please contact Cindy Ott at 843-477-2072 or Cynthia.ott@hgtc.edu
