Convenience

Life is busy, and college is expensive. At The Praxis Institute, our goal is to provide high-quality education, continuing education, and certification programs balanced with the convenience modern students demand.

Locations in Miami and Hialeah

We have two easy-to-access campuses. Our Miami location is centrally located off the highway with access to the bus and Metrorail. Our Hialeah campus is in the Northwest section of Miami-Dade County in a shopping center.

Not only are our campuses easy to get to, but because of our location and the diversity in these areas, we offer classes in both English and Spanish.

Competitive Pricing

At The Praxis Institute, the price of our programs is comparable to others in the area. Additionally, we offer financial aid for those students who qualify.  Students can apply for both federal and state assistance and subsidized and unsubsidized loans. We also have access to an emergency relief fund to help those in need.

Flexible Scheduling

Our flexible scheduling allows you to fit classes around your routine so that you can balance life’s demands and responsibilities with your education. We offer classes Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. In addition, our programs can be part-time, requiring just a few hours a week of instruction.

Weekly Enrollment

While most schools only offer enrollment opportunities three or four times a year, we have enrollment times for our diploma programs every week, meaning you can apply as soon as you decide you’re ready. Enrolling faster allows you to apply for financial aid sooner, register for classes earlier, and set yourself on the path toward success.

Experienced Staff

Our desire is to provide an education that helps students improve their future, and it starts with our instructors. We hire staff with years of experience, both in education and in the healthcare field. By learning from knowledgeable faculty, you’ll get more out of your education.

We want our students to be set up for success in the healthcare support field, no matter where life takes them. That’s why we offer both associate and diploma programs. When you’re done with our program, you will not only receive a degree but also a certificate, which is not always offered by other schools. This certificate can help you stand out among job seekers.

Over the last 40 years, we’ve worked to build a network of professionals throughout South Florida, giving our students access to potential employers, including healthcare companies, hospitals, doctors’ offices, and rehab centers.
