Expanding Hands-On Clinical and Externship Opportunities for Online Healthcare Training Students Nationwide

NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, October 22, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Advanced eClinical Training (ACT), a nationally recognized leader in online healthcare training, has partnered with CVS Pharmacy, Inc., a subsidiary of CVS Health, to expand hands-on clinical and externship opportunities for students enrolled in ACT’s Online Healthcare Training Programs across the United States.

This collaboration formalizes CVS Health’s participation in ACT’s growing national network of clinical partners, offering ACT students the opportunity to complete their hands-on externship training within CVS Health pharmacies and affiliated healthcare facilities nationwide.

✔ A New Era of Online-to-Clinic Learning

As the demand for skilled healthcare workers continues to rise, ACT is leading the way in developing scalable, workforce-driven education models that directly align with employer needs. Through this partnership, ACT students will receive practical training in real pharmacy environments—developing essential clinical, administrative, and patient-care skills that prepare them for immediate employment upon graduation.

“This partnership with CVS Health represents a major step forward in bridging online learning with real-world healthcare experience,” said Cassidy Floyd, Director of Partnerships of Advanced eClinical Training (ACT). “ACT students are entering the healthcare field faster, better prepared, and more confident—because their education doesn’t stop at the screen.
