Certified Nurse Aide Program Overview
In just a few short weeks you can start your career as a Certified Nurse Aide (CNA). Nursing homes, hospitals, adult daycare centers, personal homes, and assisted living facilities all require nursing aides to act as a helpful liaison between the RN or LPN and the patient. A CNA’s workload can become intense and fast-paced, but the ability to help those in medical need is a strong, motivating factor.
Nursing skills are taught in the nursing laboratory, with clinical experiences provided in area nursing homes and hospitals. Students must provide TB skin test results from within the past 12 months.

Financial Assistance
Financial assistance is available through the Tri County Tech Foundation for Full Time & Flex programs, as well as some Fast Track programs. After you are accepted into a program, you will receive a financial assistance application. The form must be filled out and turned in with the most recent two months of pay stubs for every working member of your household.
Our main goal for financial assistance at Tri County Tech is to provide assistance for financially disadvantaged students who would be unable to get the education they deserve. Assistance consists of grants, scholarships, and employment. An individual might participate in one or more resources, depending upon eligibility and need.
We do not accept funds from FAFSA or PELL.
