How do I become a phlebotomist in CA?

[thirdunity]

I know that Google is my friend, but I haven't turned up very much useful information. Does anyone know anything about training programs in California, what I have to do? Can you be a phlebotomist on a part-time basis?

Go here: http://www.ascp.org/index.asp
You can learn about all the careers involved in laboratory medicine, including phlebotomy technicians. There's also a page of how to become certified in CA. There are tons of jobs out there in phlebotomy & you can definitely find part-time work!

I don't know where exactly you are in California, but I found this website.

It lists everything you need, including places that train. HTH
