The Certified Nurse Aide (CNA)
program is one of our quickest paths
to gainful employment! Students
in this program spend three weeks
gaining the knowledge, skills, and
attitudes needed to certify as a CNA
and become eligible to work in a
long-term care facility. Job demand
in this area is high, and our instructor,
Laurayne Much, receives frequent
calls from prospective employers.
Successful graduates can expect to
start at an hourly wage between $10
and $15 an hour, many receive sign-on
bonuses.
While many of our graduates stay at
the CNA level and enjoy meaningful
careers, others use this program
as a stepping stone into higher
level nursing degrees. In order to
successfully complete this program,
students must complete the full class
schedule and pass written, as well as,
skills exams. This program is eligible for
GAP funding, which means students
at qualifying income levels may be
eligible for 100% tuition assistance.
(See the ad on page 24 for more
information on GAP programming.)
