EduMed Partners, LLC

What EduMed Partners, LLC does

EduMed Partners, LLC is a privately held Tennessee limited liability company founded in April 2011 that operates a single-campus healthcare certificate education institution in Goodlettsville, Tennessee, serving the Nashville metropolitan area. The company's core product is two specialized healthcare training programs: a 7-month (30-week) Clinical Medical Assistant program priced at $7,500 and a 60-hour Phlebotomy Technician program priced at $1,600, both designed for working adults and career changers without prior medical experience. Graduates are prepared for national certification exams through the National Healthcareer Association (NHA) and, for Pharmacy Technician pathways, the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board (PTCB), with embedded Bloodborne Pathogen Certifications and hands-on clinical externships.

The business is authorized by the Tennessee Higher Education Commission (THEC) as a post-secondary institution and has accepted Title IV federal student aid since June 2017, enabling Pell Grant and FSA loan recipients to enroll alongside cash-pay, VA-eligible, and MYCAA-eligible students. Revenue mechanics are straightforward tuition collection, with $700 required upfront per cash-pay student and flexible payment plans available for the balance; the school uses an Orbund SIS online registration portal alongside in-person admissions assessments and interviews. The 3,500 sq ft campus includes labs, classrooms, a breakroom, and a resource center, and tablet-based digital textbooks are deployed for instructional delivery.

The company is founder-led by Dr. Kleber Molina (President/CEO, MD with 25+ years in medicine and 15+ years in education) and Sandra Overton (Vice President/CFO, MT/MBA with 30+ years in healthcare operations including laboratory directorship and health system VP roles). Marketing is conducted primarily through the company website, a Facebook page (EduMed Nashville), community engagement, and Dr. Molina's motivational speaking engagements booked through a speakers bureau. The 2019-2020 student body totaled 183 enrolled students (137 Pell + 46 FSA), with a demographic composition approximately 95% female and 62.1% non-Caucasian. No proprietary technology platform, mobile app, or AI capability is disclosed; the technology footprint is limited to tablet-based digital curriculum delivery and a third-party student information system.
