Zollege is currently searching for a Part-Time Medical Assistant Instructor to join the team at Tucson Medical Assistant School.

About Us:

At Zollege, we believe higher education should be focused on empowerment, not financial burden. We’ve helped students save over $1 billion in student loan debt.


Our programs are built for real-world success at a fraction of the cost—hands-on, career-focused training led by instructors who support you from your first class to your first job.
