Brooklyn Institute's commitment
is that a successful school must make a concerted effort
to excel. In Brooklyn's inception in Spring 2005, the
founders, Naomi Brooks and Nora Flores, have been committed
to reinventing the philosophy of a sound education,
which includes the effort of the student body as well
as the staff. Everyone involved must work toward the
same goal, creating a healthy educational environment.

Our personal confidence has increased through the cultivation
of leadership and organizational skills. We delight

to excel in academics, motivation, and professional
development.
Brooklyn Institute is approved by
the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) and accredited
by The Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health
Education Program (CAAHEP) and National Surgical Assistant
Association (NSAA). TWC regulates and approves the operation
of proprietary schools. CAAHEP is the largest programmatic
accreditor in the health sciences field. It reviews
and accredits programs. NSAA is an organization that
certifies surgical assistants nationwide. It is the
first organization to establish standards of professionalism
and proficiency for non physician surgical assistants.
Leadership and organizational abilities are crucial
roles to any school. They play a key role in maintaining
the highest quality of success. Organizing an efficient
school is essential in an ever-changing society. New
medical technology is constantly evolving; therefore,
our school must revolutionize its strategy in order
to succeed.
As founders of Brooklyn Institute,
we base our concept on a medical trade school and our
combined years of experience, which encompasses over
60 years as medical professionals. We receive tremendous
gratification when students are given the opportunity
of achieving skills, not just knowledge, in order to
maintain fresh, rewarding careers.
Our goal is excellence in curriculum, staff, and faculty.
It is our job to ensure that all possible educational
resources are available to our student body to guarantee
their success.

educational needs, it will serve your best interest
for a sound education.
