Do you need a licence in Texas?
Texas 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 CALRegional - Texas
How long is the CALRegional - Texas phlebotomy program?
The program runs 12 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 CALRegional - Texas 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 CALRegional - Texas located?
The program is based in Dallas, Texas. Check with the school which campus or clinical site your cohort actually meets at, as it is not always the main address.
