Certified Nursing Assistant Programming

CNA Training Course

Overview and Benefits

We are excited to offer a combined Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and Basic Life Support for Healthcare Providers (BLS) Certificate Training, open to all students at a lower cost than other area certificate classes. The course fee is an all-inclusive cost, and at completion, you will have your CNA certification and AHA/CPR card.

The certificate training fee includes a class fee, exam fees, and AHA/CPR card fee.

Registration is limited to 24 students for each session (classes offered every 2-3 months throughout the year). If we do not meet our minimum enrollment numbers, the CNA and BLS training will be canceled, and all payments will be refunded. Unless otherwise noted, partial refunds will be given when registration is withdrawn at least 14 days before the scheduled start date of the offering. The amount of the partial refund will be equal to the registration fee less a cancellation fee. In these cases, the cancellation fee charged will equal 10% of the initial registration fee.

The schedule and registration for upcoming CNA training are now available in the .
