How to become a chiropractic assistant?

To become a chiropractic assistant, you need a minimum of a high school diploma. Some chiropractor offices require additional qualifications, such as post-secondary training and certification. You can get training at vocational schools or community colleges. The Federation of Chiropractic Licensing Boards offers an exam for candidates who complete at least 24 hours of post-secondary education. If you pass the exam, you earn the Certified Chiropractic Clinical Assistant certification. The training and certification process gives you skills that enable you to perform more clinical duties and work directly with patients. As an unlicensed clinical assistant, you will do more administrative jobs.
