What FLORIDA HEALTHCARE ACADEMY LLC does

Florida Health Care Academy LLC is a privately held healthcare vocational training institution founded in 2003 and headquartered at 5804 Lake Underhill Rd, Orlando, Florida, operating under Florida Commission for Independent Education License #5971. The company delivers a portfolio of short-duration, hybrid-format career programs — Medical Assistant ($6,700, 12 or 24 weeks), Medical Billing and Coding ($2,500, 12 weeks), Phlebotomy ($1,300), Home Health Aide ($1,250), EKG Technician ($1,100, 4 or 9 weeks) — supplemented by CNA exam prep, IV Therapy training, AHA CPR certification, and recurring CEU bundles for license renewal. Course delivery combines live online instruction (via Zoom) with on-campus hands-on labs at the single Orlando facility, scheduled across morning, afternoon, evening, and Saturday tracks, with a Kajabi-based learning management platform handling online coursework and enrollment.

The business model is direct-to-consumer tuition: students pay one-time program fees with optional Klarna installment financing, and no federal financial aid (FAFSA) is accepted. The academy is an approved testing center for both the National Healthcareer Association (NHA) — administering CET and CCMA exams on-site — and Prometric, where it serves as a regional site for the Florida Nursing Assistant exam that any candidate can use. Reported outcomes include an 83% first-attempt national certification pass rate against a 70% national average and a 4.6-star Google rating from 243 reviews as of July 2026.

The institution operates with a small team of approximately 6 employees led by School Coordinator and Principal Josefina Buonaccordo, and relies on certified healthcare professionals as instructors. Marketing is executed through content-driven SEO, Google reviews management, advisor-driven inside sales, and organic social on Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. Employer logos including Orlando Health, AdventHealth, HCA Florida Healthcare, Halifax Health, DaVita, OneBlood, BioLife Plasma Services, CSL Plasma, and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs function as graduate-placement channels rather than paying customers. The company is not publicly traded, has no disclosed funding rounds, no subsidiaries, no parent company, and no M&A history; revenue is not publicly disclosed.
