Do you need a licence in Missouri?
Missouri 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 Kansas City School of Phlebotomy
How much does the Kansas City School of Phlebotomy phlebotomy program cost?
Tuition runs about $500. 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 Kansas City School of Phlebotomy phlebotomy program?
The program runs 7 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.

What certification does Kansas City School of Phlebotomy prepare you for?
The program prepares students to sit for NHA. Certification is awarded by the certifying body after you pass its exam, not by the school — finishing the program makes you eligible to test.
Does the Kansas City School of Phlebotomy 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.

The program is based in Kansas City, Missouri. Check with the school which campus or clinical site your cohort actually meets at, as it is not always the main address.
