During the next four weeks, through a combination of theory and skills practice, using their workbooks, watching videos, taking quizzes, and applying the skills learned, students get the opportunity to practice and perfect their nursing assistant skills, getting them prepared to pass the exam and, most importantly, be very successful at work.
Every day, a new set of skills will be demonstrated and practiced. It is required that all students attend every day in order to be checked off on their skill set. If a student misses a day, they will have to make it up to the next available time.

Clinical rotations are an essential component of the training and every day, a new set of skills will be practiced.
