Western University of Health Sciences’ Pomona Health Career Ladder (PHCL) is a pathway fostering the progress of students from the Pomona community in becoming skilled and compassionate health care practitioners in a variety of medical and health care professions. Western University of Health Sciences is committed to the next generation of scholars from preschool through college who will go on to become healthcare practitioners in our community.

These workshops are conducted by health care professionals and WesternU students who are studying to become health care professionals.

PHCL looks forward to expanding the opportunities every year!
