What is the difference between CCMA and CMA and which will help me to get to PA school.

Hello,

I am a currently an undergraduate with a health science major, I want to become a Physician's Assistant, and to be a PA, it is usually required to have patient care hours (not patient contact hours which come from shadowing a doctor) as a medical assistant. Which would be better for me to have...a CCMA or a CMA? And what's the difference between them??


Thanks
